always forming and releasing pressure in different ways. Sometimes the Earth’s mantle builds up so much pressure that it starts to shift tectonic plates‚ and due to this we can see changes on our surface as well. We experience big changes like volcanoes‚ earthquakes‚ trembles‚ and continental drift‚ but a few minor things happen as well. Some of these minor results can include geysers and fumaroles. A fumarole is a very important formation that is needed to release pressure from deep inside the

The magma has changed a great deal over the years. One example is the silica weight percent peaked at 100‚000 and 200‚000 years and was the lowest in the last eruption. This indicates that Hawaii might have had more felsic lavas and more explosive eruptions 100 and 200 thousand years ago than in 1959. The weight percent of K2O and Na2O of the lava has also fluctuated throughout the years.These changes are the result of the magma changing from andesite rich lava to more basalt rich over time. The
