Cinder cones generally have a very steep slope. This slope is also considered gentle compared to the cones' short height.
Where are you most likely to find cinder cone volcano?
Cinder cones are usually found on the sides of shield volcanoes, calderas, and stratovolcanoes. Many cinder cones can be found in Hawaii on the volcano of Mauna Kea. The most active cinder cone is found in Nicaragua. It is named Cerro Negro, and according to geologists and scientist has erupted around 20 times since 1850.
What are cinder cones are made of?
Cinder Cones are composed of rock fragments and the eruption of cinders. The rock fragments pile up around a single crater forming a Cinder Cone.

What is a cinder cones type of eruption?
explosive
Do cinder cones erupt silently or explosivley?
Cinder cone volcanoes erupt explosivly.
Do cinder cone volcanoes have granitic magma?
No. Cinder cones are formed by basaltic magma.
Are cinder cones usually found at the edge of large volcanoes?
Yes, although technically, strato-volcanoes *are* cinder cones (composite cones), built up of layers of ash. But the term "cinder cones" (ash cones) is usually applied to smaller cones that form within the vicinity of large volcanic calderas, such as Crater Lake in Oregon. They may be associated with either strato-volcanoes or shield volcanoes.
