Rock & Volcano

Also called a stratovolcano, Kilimanjaro is made up of three cones: Kibo, Mawenzi, and Shira. Kibois the tallest of the three volcanic formations, which is also a dormant volcano, while the other two are extinct volcanoes.

Uhuru Peak, the highest free-standing peak in Africa, is locatedon the volcanic cone Kibo. Kilimanjaro is also known for its snow-capped peak. The mountain has five main vegetation zones, from the lowest to the highest point: Lower slopes, montane forest, heath and moorland, alpine desert, and summit.

The Kilimanjaro National Park was named a United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Site in 1987.

Highest peak of Mt. Kibo is peak Uhuru whose name was Kaiser-wilhelm-spitze before. It is an igneous mountain which forms igneous rocks through erupted lava. O.

It is dominated by the Arctic Ocean Basin, and the icy reaches of Scandinavia, Russia, The US of Alaska, Canada and Greenland. Antarctica is a continent. It is Earth's fifth largest continent and is covered completely in Ice. Antarctica comes Earth's South Pole.

Kilauea, also called Mount Kilauea ("Much Spreading" in Hawaiian), is located in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park on the southeastern part of the island of Hawaii, US. Kilauea's slopes merge with those of the nearby volcano Mauna Loa on the west and north.

It is an elongated dome built of lava eruptions from a central crater and from lines of craters extending along east and southwest rifts, or fissures. The volcano's 4,090-foot summit has collapsed to form a caldera.

A caldera is a depression created after a volcano partially collapses after releasing the majority of its magma chamber in an explosive eruption. The caldera was the site of nearly continuous activity during the 19th century and the early part of the 20th century.

It is one of the world's most active volcanoes, having erupted 34 times since 1952. From 1983 to 2018, it erupted almost continuously. In December 2020, It erupted at the crater, creating a lake with enough lava to fill 10 Hoover dams. That eruption ended in May 2021
