Volcanoes are useful in many ways. Volcanoes do so much damage you might think they aren't useful at all. But they do have their advantages. Sometimes new land appears when a volcano erupts. Volcanic rock also contains important metals such as copper, silver and gold and some gemstones. Some of the world's biggest diamonds have been found in volcanic rocks.
