As a fairly rare phenomenon, the formation of geysers is due to particular hydrogeologicalconditions that exist in only a few places on Earth. Generally all geyser field sites are located near active volcanic areas, and the geyser effect is due to the proximity ofmagma. Generally, surface water works its way down to an average depth of around 2,000 metres (6,600 ft) where it contacts hot rocks. The resultant boiling of the pressurized water results in the geyser effect of hot water and steam spraying out of the geyser's surface vent (a hydrothermal explosion).

The temperature deep inside the earth is very high at some places water seeps deep below the ground until it reaches hot rocks it gets heated up and forms steam the steam forces up the hot water to shoot out of the ground through and opening this is called natural geyser. this steam can be used to rotate a turbine to generate electricity .
