Answer:
Most of the world's geysers occur in just five countries: 1) the United States, 2) Russia, 3) Chile, 4) New Zealand, and 5) Iceland. All of these locations are where there is geologically recent volcanic activity and a source of hot rock below.
Explanation:Geysers, fumaroles (also called solfataras), and hot springs are generally found in regions of young volcanic activity. Surface water percolates downward through the rocks below the Earth's surface to high-temperature regions surrounding a magma reservoir, either active or recently solidified but still hot.
