Generally, mountains be classified as: fold mountains, block mountains, dome mountains, and volcanic mountains. Plateau mountains, uplifted passive margins, and hotspot mountains are also sometimes considered.
Fold mountains — the most common type, they form when two or more tectonic plates collide.
Block mountains (or fault-block) — formed through geological processes pushing some rocks up and others down.
Dome mountains — formed as a result of hot magma pushing beneath the crust.
Volcanic mountains — also known by a simpler name: volcanoes.
Other types of mountains sometimes included in classifications are plateau mountains, uplifted passive margins, and hotspot mountains
