Ita Mai Tai erupted first during the Albian and Aptian periods. Another episode of volcanic activity may constitute late stage volcanism; it might be represented by Campanian volcaniclastic rocks, an Eocene dome and Pliocene cones on Gelendzhik seamount. such late volcanism has been observed in other neighbouring seamounts as well. An uplift episode took place during
