When Mount Pinatubo erupted it caused lava flow?
No. The 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo was a highly explosive Plinian eruption. Instead of lava flows it produced a massive column of ash and pyroclastic flows.
Does Mount Pinatubo have AAA lava?
No. Pinatubo tends to produce ash and pumice rather than lava flows. A'a is a textural variety of basaltic lava. Pinatubo in recent history has erupted dacitic material, which is far more viscous.
What lava flow does Mount Pinatubo have?
Mount Pinatubo is most famously known for its 1991 eruption, which resulted in a massive column of ash and volcanic materials being expelled into the atmosphere. This eruption did not involve a lava flow, but rather a pyroclastic flow, which is a mixture of hot ash, gas, and rock fragments that surged down the slopes of the volcano at high speeds.
Does paricutin mafic or felsic lava?
Paricutin volcano in Mexico predominantly erupted mafic lava, which is rich in magnesium and iron and has a low silica content. This type of lava tends to flow more easily compared to felsic lava.
What is an area covered by lava as it pours from a vent?
An area covered by lava as it pours from a vent is a lava flow.

Does mt Pinatubo's lava flow violently or quietly?
Mount Pinatubo erupt violently, but does not produce lava flows. It creates massive clouds of ash and pumice.
Why did the Americans leave their base in the Philippines?
The Americans left their bases in the Philippines because Mount Pinatubo erupted and left the bases covered in lava.

How fast does dacite lava flow compared to mafic lava?
Dacite lava flows at speeds orders of magnitude slower than mafic lava.
How fast does pillow lava flow?
Im not sure but I think its not fast but not slow so in the middle
What type of lava from Pinatubo?
It is a Composite Volcano (Stratovolcano) and is located in the Philippines
What do you call molten rock once it has erupted?
Once molten rock has erupted and solidified, it is called lava.
How are lava tube caves and mount Pinatubo the same?
They both depend on eruptions for their formation but lava tubes form only in large flows of low-viscosity, basaltic,lava. I don't know if this applies to Mt. Pinatubo.
