There are volcanoes in the Caribbean. Soufriere Hills in Montserrat expels ash periodically since a major eruption in 1997. Soufriere in St. Vincent erupted about 30 years ago. La Soufriere in St. Lucia still bubbles and has sulphur pools. Dominica and Guadeluope are volcanic in origin, as are mst of the islands of the Lesser Antilles. In Trinidad there are mud volcanoes. Under the ocean in the Grenadines is an active volcano caled Kick-'em-Jenny by the locals.
What other seismic features are found near volcanoes
yes. some types of basalt is found of volcanoes.
where are minerals located where thier are volcanoes or trenches
Volcanoes are named after the lava that comes out.viscous volcanoes (or acid and dome) are the same thing.the lava comes to the surface close to subduction zones,which are found at convergent plate boundaries.it is high in silica content and does not flow easily.it contains gas which cannot escape easily,so eruptions may be explosive and violent.eg Caribbean volcanoes
Earhquakes and volcanoes are typically found near the edges of tectonic plates.
The middle of the Caribbean Sea is over the middle of the Caribbean Plate. Most volcanoes form near the edges of tectonic plates. For example, the lesser Antilles are composed in part of volcanoes at the margin of the Caribbean Plate.
volcanoes occur in the Caribbean most because of the triad , the triad is 3 plates that all push against each other there are more than 3,0000 triads in the Caribbean. when the all hit each other they send cracks into space which make more volcanoes appear in the caribbean........
Igneous rock is found in volcanoes.
In the Caribbean Sea.

The Caribbean plate and the Oceanic plate. The Oceanic plate is sub-ducted under the Caribbean thus causing the formation of volcanoes thereby creating the Caribbean Volcanic Arc.
Shield Volcanoes - Wide base found at constructive plate margins Composite Volcanoes - Steeper Sides found at Destructive (subduction) margins
Volcanoes are found nearly everywhere on Earth. There are even volcanoes located in the United States. There are a handful of countries without them.
