Cindercone volcanoes are small, steep sided, narrow based, loosely packed cones made entirely of pyroclastic material from moderately explosive eruptions.
It's the classical and most common conically-shaped ("Triangular") form of volcano.

The three types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes, stratovolcanoes (composite volcanoes), and cinder cone volcanoes.
