The emergence of new volcanoes

Especially known uses Horullo volcano in Mexico, suddenly appeared among the blossoming plains in the night from 28 th to September 29, 1759. Nearby residents say that their eyes swollen earth in a bubble: the time of the accident, they fled to a hill rising above the plain at 2,260 m, and hence seen as formed volcano. Of course, there can be no question of the precise observations. The so-called Malpays is lava field, in the modern state which has no hint of the possibility of what was happening here uplift. Many extremely important observation completely contradict the theory of lifting in its extreme form. Volcanoes, repeated eruptions of which did not manage to disguise the nature of the strata forming these rocks have relatively simple structure: the main mass of erupted products is layers, falling outwards in all directions from the center, inside the crater of the same layers of tuff and ash are back and fall to the center. This "periclinal" loose bedding products, such as it is called Richter-dryer, beautifully expressed, among other things, Solfatare Potstsuolskogo at bay. It is easily explained by the accumulation: the eruption products, falling off the edge of the crater interior, must naturally form the slopes, which over time will become a layered structure, on the contrary, the theory can not explain the elevation drop layers inside the crater to its center. Further objections to the parsing theory represents a tectonic relationship to nearby craters him the oldest breeds. For example, Pulet Scrope observed in New Zealand is extremely interesting, though small volcanic cone: it rises above the horizontally arranged layers of the tertiary system, which not only raised, but even more tilted toward the volcano. Similarly, Dutton describes the volcano among the canyons of the Colorado River, standing on the horizontal seams. Not devoid of values ??and research Tietze over the huge volcano Demavend in Persia, rises about 20 OOO r. It is located in the eastern part of the Alborz mountain range that stretches from east to west along the southern shore of the Caspian Sea. Volcano, this does not make any changes in the strike and dip of strata, forming the ridge: round quietly and traces of uplift, and the foot of the volcano are folded mountains, nothing altered his appearance. Thus we see that all the usual appearance of volcanoes is quite satisfactorily explained by the theory of accumulation and that the latter are quite consistent evidence. On the contrary, the theory does not withstand strict raising criticism, in explaining the phenomena it represents a lot of insurmountable difficulties and is now rejected by science. For the first time Yunihun and Dan noticed that their observations do not agree with this theory, but only Lyayell, Konstantin Prevost and Pulet Scrope strongly opposed the theory of lifting, they have gained many adherents, and their views have been widely disseminated. Of course, recognition of the fact that the formation of volcanic cones is mainly due to the accumulation, is an undoubted success. But in agreeing with the majority of geologists, we can not fail to notice that the opponents rejected the theory went too far in its absolute rejection of any kind has been raising events during volcanic eruptions. We present here a few facts that show the validity of our observations and recalled how every researcher should be cautious in their extreme conclusions.
