A cinder cone (or scoria cone [1]) is a steep conical hill of loose pyroclastic fragments, such as volcanic clinkers, volcanic ash, or scoria that has been built around a volcanic vent. [2] [3] The pyroclastic fragments are formed by explosive eruptions or lava fountains from a single, typically cylindrical, vent.
Volcanic cones are among the simplest volcanic landforms. They are built by ejecta from a volcanic vent , piling up around the vent in the shape of a cone with a central crater. Volcanic cones are of different types, depending upon the nature and size of the fragments ejected during the eruption.
Clinker Gulch) is a gulch extending from Lucifer Hill to the north shore of Candlemas Island, South Sandwich Islands The name applied by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1971 reflects the actively volcanic, sulphurous nature of the area, and the loose piles of lava debris, resembling furnace clinkers, which wall the gulch.

Volcanic islands usually range in size between 1 and 104 square kilometres (0.4 and 40 sq mi). [2] Islands above a certain size usually have fresh groundwater, while low islands often do not, so volcanic islands are more likely to be habitable. Many volcanic islands emerge from the deep abyss of the ocean, and feature rough or mountainous ...
Chikurachki (Russian: Чикурачки; Japanese: 千倉岳, Chikura-dake) is the highest volcano on Paramushir Island in the northern Kuril Islands.It is actually a relatively small volcanic cone constructed on a high Pleistocene volcanic edifice.
It is a stratovolcano in the Garibaldi Volcanic Belt, part of the Clinker Ridge on the west side of Garibaldi Lake. Clinker Peak is considered a volcanic vent of Mount Price, and produced two large lava flows approximately 9,000 years ago, that ponded against the retreating continental ice sheet and formed The Barrier , containing Garibaldi Lake .
