Most volcanoes appear to be explosive in nature and produce more pyroclastics than lava. The common types of vulcanoes are shield‚ conical and composite volcanoes. Basically‚ vulanicity in Eastern Africa can be categorized into

occurred at mount pinatubo in the philippines on june 15 1991. in march and april 1991 magma rising towards the surface from more than 30 km below pinatubo started making small earthquakes and caused small powerful steam explosion that opened three craters on the north flank of the volcano. thousands of small earthquakes occurred and many tons of gas were also emitted by the volcano. from june 7 to june 12 the magma reached the surface of mount pinatunbo. because of the gas pressure the magma erupted

volcanic cones: Kibo (5895 metres)‚ Mawenzi (5149 metres) & Shira (3962 metres). Volcanic conditions Although it’s dormant‚ Kilimanjaro has fumarole (an opening in the earths crust) that emits gasses in the crater on the main summit of Kibo. Molten magma is just 400 metres below the summit crater. A number of landslides have occurred in the past creating an area called the Western Breech. The last known eruption was approximately 360 000 years ago‚ but the most recent volcanic activity took place approximately

explosion destroyed the core of reactor number 4. The 2nd explosion was more powerful causing graphite and reactor fuel into the air. The explosion had created a crater with burning graphite and about 30 fires around the plant. All fires were extinguished 4.5 hours after explosion ‚except the graphite fire inside of the reactor crater. This was accomplished using 37 fire crews each consisting of 186 fireman and airdrops from helicopters using sand clay‚ boron‚ dolomite‚ and lead. Firemen in the
