A deep axial rift is a valley occurring at slow spreading mid-ocean ridges. The edges of such rifts are very rugged, and causing a good portion of the ocean floor to be covered in rough abyssal hills.

Which plate boundary causes rifting?
Rift are formed between divergent boundaries, as the plates break apart from each other, a rift is formed between them. Also as they split apart the void between them forms a rift valley. Like the great rift valley in Africa.

What type of magma is associated with fissure eruption?
Fissure eruptions are also common on the flanks of many large volcanoes and, therefore, they are not restricted to areas undergoing regional extension. Magma-filled fissures radiating from the summit regions of active volcanoes like Mt. Etna, Mauna Loa, and Kilauea propagate outward from the central vent system. Extrusion from these propagating fissures can produce elongate volcano morphologies, such as those that are typical of many Hawaiian shield volcanoes. Note, for example, the axial elongation of the Mauna Loa shield volcano shown in the image to the left. Mauna Loa fissure eruptions are generated along two axial rift zones connected at the Mokuaweoweo summit crater. Each rift zone is underlain by magma-filled fissures. The image here displays several lava flows radiating downslope from these axial rift zones. Most of these erupted in historic times.
