Process in which solid, liquid or gaseous materials are forced out of the interior of the earth into the earth’s crust or onto the earth’s surface.
These materials are magma, lava, gases, dust, ash and cinder.


- Magma under high temperature and pressure moving through lines of weakness or faults.

- When tectonic plates move away from each other and boundaries give way to magma.

- Underground water coming into contact with hot materials hence changing into gaseous form.
