A lava butte is generally basaltic lava. Granitic lava flows (called rhyolitic when they form at the surface) are rare and do not cover much ground.

Niether. The eruption of 1980 did not produce lava flows, it produced pumice and ash. Afterward it started building a dome of dacitic lava. Pahoehoe and a'a are basaltic lava, which has a different composition and a much lower viscosity.
It did a lot of damage.

There is no lava in Mount Gambier, But there is a volcano in Mount Gambier in which is Dormit(meaning asleep). The lava in the volcano is rock solid, so a large explosion possibly bigger than krackatoa will have to be made in order for the volcano to become awake.

Nothing much. She lies on the Antarctic continent, the southern-most active volcano on earth, and continues to heat up lava in her permanent lava lake.
The 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora and the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa were the largest volcanic eruptions in human history. Both were extremely violent Ultra Plinian eruptions, which spew massive amounts of ash miles into the atmosphere. They were also caldera-forming eruptions, meaning that they drained so much magma from underground that they collapsed into the space left behind. The eruption of Krakatoa produced about 20 cubic kilometers of ash while the eruption of Mount Tambora produced about 160 cubic kilometers.

Mount St Helens erupts dacitic lava, which forms dacite when it cools. Because of the high gas content and high viscosity much of the material gets erupted as ash and pumice rather than lava.
In Hawai'ian, the word kīlauea means "spewing" or "much spreading", in reference to the mountain's frequent outpouring of lava.
