Basaltic. There is more gas content than in most basaltic magma so that when a cinder cone erupts, The pressure builds up and makes the eruption somewhat explosive. Tephra, or dried lava/magma, is shot up, and joined to the volcano making it larger.

The type of mountain where magma breaks the surface is a volcano. Their are three types of volcanos, composite, shield, and cinder cones.

Cinder cone volcanoes are formed by basaltic magma.

The type of volcano does not determine its level of acitivty. A cinder cone volcano may be active, dormant, or extinct.
Cinder Cones

Shield volcanoes will erupt basaltic lava. Cinder cones erupt basaltic lava or basaltic andesite lava. Stratovolcanoes often erupt andesite lava, but may erupt basaltic or rhyolitic lava and all intermediate types as well.
