The area where magma from deep within the mantle melts through the crust is called a volcanic hotspot. These hotspots are locations where molten rock, or magma, rises to the surface, creating volcanic activity. Examples of hotspots include Hawaii and Yellowstone National Park.

magma comes from the outer core and when an earthquake or something happends, a crack froms and the pressure of lava shoots up like a geyser.
Magma is fluid molten rock that exists under the Earth's crust.
Igneous rock
When the heated part of the mantle rises through the Earth's crust, it can create volcanic activity as magma reaches the surface. This process is known as mantle convection and is responsible for the movement of tectonic plates and the formation of volcanic hotspots.

At a hot spot, the mantle directly beneath the crust is hotter than usual. This hot mantle material partially melts. The molten material, called magma, rises through the crust and erupts onto the surface for form volcanoes.

Hotspots are thought to form due to mantle plumes. This is the upwelling of high temperature material from deep within the mantle. This high temperature material causes partial melting of the shallow mantle and overlying crust leading to a "hotspot" and volcanism.

Heat in the Earth's mantle is a driving force behind hotspots and geysers. Hotspots are areas where magma plumes rise from the mantle, creating volcanic activity at the surface. Geysers are hot springs that erupt periodic jets of water and steam due to the heating of groundwater by magma and heat from the mantle. Both hotspots and geysers stem from the heat within the Earth's mantle that affects the surface geology.
Igneous rock
Magma from the mantle of the earth is forced up through fissures in the crust of the earth.
