Iceland is situated on a divergent plate boundary.

  • Iceland lies on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge which is a divergent plate boundary where the North American Plate and the Eurasian Plate are moving away from each other.
  • The movent of the plates which are pulling apart from each other causes molten rocks or lava to rise up and erupt as lava creates new ocean crust.
  • Iceland has formed a 16million years ago due the volcanic activity and till today these volcanic lava erupts continueing to form, erupt and shape the landscape of Iceland.
  • Iceland is covered with more than 100 volcanos among which some are extinct but more than 30 are still active.
