Shiprock is a volcanic plug, which is a type of stratovolcano formed from the hardened magma that once filled a volcanic vent. Located in northwestern New Mexico, it is a prominent geological feature that rises dramatically from the surrounding landscape. The formation is part of the larger San Juan volcanic field and is composed mainly of volcanic breccia, with the surrounding area shaped by erosion over millions of years. Shiprock is recognized as a sacred site by several Native American tribes.
