Apparently yes, according to experts ... however in the latest Christchurch earthquakes, boiling water has been noted springing up all around it and some of the earthquakes were centered in and around Lyttelton. A strong smell of sulfur was also noted just after these quakes. The experts insist it is extinct but is there really any such thing as an extinct volcano?

How is a dormant volcano different from an extinct volcano?

it's different because a dormant volcano is when a volcano is sleeping but can erupt any time. an extinct volcano is a volcano that's dead. it is very unlikely for an extinct volcano to awaken. the volcano is dead because it has let out all the magma from its chamber or the magma has drifted someplace else or the magma has hardened.
