Volcanoes

[Doc oga]

Why don't volcanoes have vents or holes on their craters running deep where ash and lava spew out from?

There was when the volcano was erupting...then the material at the top collapsed into the vent and because the weight was too heavy for the pressure inside to displace the collapsed material cooled, hardened into a rock and plugged the vent(s).

I know. Wanted to see if the OP is attentive.

But it is accurate ukitoa meteor. Some active volcanoes however don't close entirely. You can look over and see a burning pit of lava but that is rare. Otherwise, once the pressure is released, the materials solidify blocking the vents.

You are wasting the internet.

You have been wasting the internet too.

You are wasting the internet.

Volcanic mountains are made up of the same elements/materials as those of mine slag waste. That is reason enough to waste the internet searching for the truth.

Kijana if you are going to start on those conspiracy trips, I'm going to hunt you down for a physical conversation, which won't be pleasant at all. For about 100 hrs of internet self-study in rock formation, you can get rid of that ignorance streak for good. It will be a huge burden on this country to tolerate you for another 60 yrs, assuming that you never get to breed.
