Is mt Pinatubo formed at a hot spot?

No. A hot spot volcano forms in the middle of a plate, for reasons nobody is sure of. Mount. Pinatubo is formed due to the destructive plate boundary between the Pacific (oceanic ) and the Eurasian (continental) plates. +++ A hot spot volcano is also called an 'intra-plate volcano'. One theory if that it forms over a rising convection-plume within the Mantle, but the existence of such relatively narrow columns of slightly less dense rock is a matter of some debate, being very hard to prove convincingly. Structures deep within the planet can only be detected by analysing many seismographs from around the world, and my own thought is that the acoustic properties of a mantle-plume may mean very limited effects on seismic waves, making it hard to "see" against the surrounding Mantle. ' Hawaii is the classic example of such a volcano, and it has left a trail across part of the Pacific floor as the plate itself has drifted over the hot spot. ' Volcanoes also form on constructive-plate boundaries, and tend to be more benign than the destructive-boundary cousins. Example - Iceland.
