Mount Everest was formed by a convergent or collision boundary.
It was formed from the volcanism created by a subducting oceanic plate at a convergent plate boundary.
spreading plate boundary
It is not on a plate boundary. Therefore it may be on hotspot.
eruasion plate
Mt. Everest was not formed as a volcano, but is the result of movements of the underlying tectonic plates. Mount Everest was created by what is called uplift, which resulted when the Indian tectonic plate pushed into the Eurasian tectonic plate. And it's still happening. Everest is getting taller while you read this. The Himalayas were created by the Indian subcontinent drifting north and colliding with the Asian plate.No, Mount Everest is not a volcano.

No, Mount Everest was not formed by lava. It is thought that the summit of Mount Everest started at the bottom of the ancient Tethys Sea, the motion of the Indian sub continental plate and the urasian continental plate colliding, about 30 - 50 million years ago, caused the mountain to rise up and become the highest mountain on the Earth.

Mt Everest was formed about 60 million years ago , But still grows at a rate of 2.4 inches a yearDid you get an F in math? If Everest grew at an average rate of 2.4 inches a year than it took about 2500 years to reach 29,028.9 ft
