Why does Magma come out of the fault?

Most fault movement is not directly associated with magma release. Some faults are caused by magmatic forces. These are usually closely associated with volcanoes. Besides these, so called normal faults are often associated with the extension or stretching of continents. Africa's rift valley and the American Basin and Range province are zones of extension. The stretching thins the crust and provides passageways for magma. Dikes, metal deposits, and lava eruptions can result, and they will be closely associated with faults. Besides these cases, over a wider range fault zones and volcanic zones often coincide because plate collisions produce both features.
