Volcanoes Magma Reaches the Earth’s Surface KEY CONCEPT:When a Volcano erupts, the force of the expanding gases pushes magma from the magma chamber through.
Volcanoes. What is it?? It is... an opening, or rupture, in the Earth's surface or crust, which allows hot melted rock, volcanic ash and gases to escape.
Volcanoes. Volcanoes and Plate tectonics  Volcano is a mountain formed when layers of lava and volcanic ash erupt and build up  Most are dormant 
Plate Tectonics. Earth’s Layers The Earth's rocky outer crust solidified billions of years ago, soon after the Earth formed. This crust is not a solid.

Presentation transcript:

Icelandic Geology Your mission is … -To put the pictures and captions you’ve been given onto the map where you think they go. -Write a paragraph explaining how Iceland was formed. -If you can (this bit is hard!), write down what you think Iceland will be like in 1 million years.

Ice caps Rocks younger than 0.7 million years old Rocks million years old Rocks older than 3.1 million years old Active and dormant volcanoes

Captions Fumaroles (an opening in the Earth’s surface that emits steam and other gases) Spreading Ridge (where two chunks of the Earth are moving apart allowing new rocks to come to the surface) Oldest rocks Youngest rocks Active Volcanoes Dormant Volcanoes Boiling mud pot (sort of fumarole or hot spring) Fissures (a volcanic vent that is not explosive)

FumaroleMud pot Table mountains made up of layers of lava flows. Newest rocks covered in sulphurous deposits.
