Erta Ale volcano is located on the East African Rift, which is a divergent plate boundary. Divergent boundaries are where two tectonic plates are moving away from each other, allowing magma to rise up and create new crust. The East African Rift is a prime example of this type of boundary, where the African Plate is splitting into two separate plates, the Nubian Plate to the west and the Somali Plate to the east.
