A volcano has magma,the molten rock that comes from the core of the earth.
Mafic, more commonly called Basaltic.
Shield volcanoes will erupt basaltic lava. Cinder cones erupt basaltic lava or basaltic andesite lava. Stratovolcanoes often erupt andesite lava, but may erupt basaltic or rhyolitic lava and all intermediate types as well.
A cinder cone volcano typically has basaltic lava, which is low in silica content and flows easily. This results in the formation of steep-sided cones made of mostly cinders and volcanic ash.
The Thera volcano, also known as Santorini, has both basaltic and andesitic lava. Basaltic lava is more fluid and flows easily, while andesitic lava is thicker and can lead to explosive eruptions. Thera's volcanic activity has produced different types of lava throughout its history.
Paricutin is a volcano in Michoacán, Mexico. The volcano is a cinder cone volcano. This means that the volcano is made up of layers of ash and stones that erupt out of the earth when the volcano erupts.

Both shield volcanoes and cinder cones primarily erupt basaltic lava.
The Lascar volcano forms basaltic lava, which is low in viscosity and typically erupts explosively, creating lava fountains, flows, and pyroclastic material.
Eyjafjallajökull Volcano produces basaltic and andesitic lava. The eruption in 2010 resulted in the release of both types of lava, creating a mix of volcanic products.
Eyjafjallajökull volcano produced a type of lava called basaltic lava. Basaltic lava is low in silica content, which makes it less viscous and allows it to flow more easily over the surface, leading to the formation of shield volcanoes like Eyjafjallajökull.
The Mayon Volcano in the Philippines typically has basaltic andesite lava flows, which are characterized by their high silica content and intermediate viscosity, allowing for slow-moving lava flows. This type of lava results in cone-shaped volcanoes with steep slopes.
Mafic, usually basaltic lava.
