We do not have any active volcanoes, but about 750 million years ago, volcanoes were erupting all up and down the east coast. The soil in the upper part of our state is bright red still from the iron in the lava which flowed across the land. The Appalachian Mountains contain volcanic rock such as granite and basalt.
