Cinder cones are
known as Scoria
cones. These are cones made of basalt at low density. Gas bubble, making up the
lave are energetic in nature, because they keep on expanding in all directions,
they will go all out to the only open are of a volcano, the vent, in an upward
direction. These fragments are called pyroclasts. When thrown up high, because
pf pressure, these fragments fail to stick together and cool down before they
reach the land making scoria cones.
