The incident happened in Kalimantan and may be due to the mining activities there

As it turns out, the video was recorded at a mining site in Muara Tuhup, Murung Raya, in Central Kalimantan, the Indonesian side of Borneo island.

According to the Indonesia-based portal VOI, the country’s Director of Public Meteorology, Andri Ramdhani, what was seen in the video wasn’t actually a cloud but most likely a condensation of water vapour or gas due to human activity that occurs in the mining area.

Andri further elaborated that clouds can’t fall to the surface as dense clumps because their particles are very light and scattered with low density.

Hence, he said that the ‘cloud’ is likely a condensation of water vapour or gas caused by technical or operational activity in the area. Specifically, it could be caused by the release of high-pressure gas from mining activities coupled with low temperatures and high humidity in the area.
