What type of magma are lava plateaus made from?

Lava plateaus are formed by highly fluid, basaltic lavas.


How do rhyolitic magma or lava and basaltic lava differ?

rhyolitic mama is associated with explosive volcanism and is ejected (blown out of) a volcano rapidly. Basaltic lavas are released during effusive volcanism that is not explosive, such as hawaii where the lave "flows" into the ocean slowly. Basaltic lavas have a lower silica content as well.


Are basaltic lavas a pahoehoe lava?

Not necessarily. All pahoehoe is basaltic, but not all basaltic lava is pahoehoe. A'a and scoria are also basaltic.


Where do rocks have a basaltic composition?

Oceanic crust is made of basaltic rock. The rocks formed from hotspot volcano lavas are also often basaltic too.


Pillow lavas are associated with?

Pillow lava is associated with submarine basaltic eruptions. Although they are usually basaltic, they can have other compositions as well.
