Cerro Negro in Nicaragua is a volcanic cone situated along the Pacific Ring of Fire, specifically over a divergent boundary associated with the Cocos and North American tectonic plates. The region is characterized by the subduction of the Cocos Plate beneath the North American Plate, leading to significant volcanic activity. Additionally, Cerro Negro is influenced by a hotspot, which contributes to its formation and eruptions. This combination of tectonic and volcanic activity makes it one of the most active volcanoes in Nicaragua.
Cerro Negro in Nicaragua is an active volcano. It has erupted over 20 times since its first recorded eruption in 1850, with the most recent eruption occurring in 1999.
The plate boundary at which plates collide or come together is called a convergent boundary. At convergent boundaries, one plate is typically forced beneath the other in a process known as subduction. This collision can lead to the formation of mountain ranges, deep ocean trenches, and volcanic activity.

Mobil's Cerro Negro project is in Venezuela
It was in 1999.
It is a volcano in Nicaragua. Its name means black hill.

It is called a divergent plate boundary.
divergent plate boundary- a boundary where two plates move apart from each other. convergent plate boundary- a boundary where two plates move towards each other so that one plate can sink beneath the other. transform plate boundary- a boundary where one plate slips along side another plate.
It is a destructive plate boundary ;)
