Volcanism is the phenomenon of eruption of molten rock (magma) onto the surface of the Earth or a solid-surface planet or moon, where lava, pyroclastics and volcanic gases erupt through a break in the surface called a vent.ome of this magma may cool extremely rapidly and will form volcanic glass (rocks without crystals) such as obsidian. Magma that remains trapped below ground in thin intrusions cools slower than magma exposed to the surface and produces rocks with medium-sized crystals.
1. a. An opening in the earth's crust from which lava, ash, and hot gases flow or are ejected during an eruption. b. A similar opening on the surface of another celestial object. 2. A usually cone-shaped mountain formed from the materials issuing from such an opening.n opening in the Earth's crust from which lava, ash, and hot gases flow or are thrown out during an eruption. 2. A usually cone-shaped mountain formed by the materials that flowed or were thrown out from such an opening. See more at tectonic boundary.
