Tectonic plates in Iceland. The tectonic plates whose turbulent interactions formed Iceland, are the Eurasian tectonic plate and the North American tectonic plate. Spanning the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, Iceland emerged as a result of the divergent, spreading, boundary between these two plates and the activity of IcelandÂ´s own hotspot or mantle plume.
Politically Iceland belongs to the continent of Europe. However  geologically Iceland is a subaerial part of Mid-Atlantic spreading  ridge, the ridge along which the oceanicâ¦ crust spreads and forms  new oceanic crust. In addition to this, this part of the MOR (mid  ocean ridge) is located atop a mantle plume causing Iceland to be  subaerial (above sea level). Tectonically Iceland belongs neither  to European continent nor to North America since it is a raised  part of the oceanic crust, not a continental land mass. Maria Aziz.
