Top of Volcano Blown of in Blast!

Top of Volcano Blown Off In Blast! 18/04/82
60 people were killed today when Mt. St Helens blew its top

Mt. St Helens erupted two years ago today in a blast that caused the volcano to be reduced by 451 metres (1313 feet). The volcano is south-western Washington and is part of the Cascade Range.

Mt. St Helens had been dormant since 1859 and has let off its first blast since then today. The volcano killed all life in an area of 180 sq. cm(70 sq. miles) including at least 60 people! The ash and dust spread much farther than this, of course. Today it is continuing to emit to emit dust and ash at intervals. Today a monument has been erected called the National Volcano Monument, in memory of this tragedy.

How A Volcano is Formed

A volcano is formed in this way:

1)Magma starts off below the crust.
2)Magma collects in chamber.
3) Pressure rises.

4) The pressure rises so high that the magma breaks through the crust and volcano erupts.

Often volcanoes are cone shaped. You might ask: "How do they get like that?"
This is the answer:
When a volcano erupts many minerals and fragments are blown up, many falling in a circle around the volcano. As lava flows onto this it builds up around the volcano, so the volcano gets higher still. Each time the volcano erupts, more lava, minerals and fragments are emitted. Therefore every time a volcano erupts it erupts it gets taller, and some like Mt. St. Helens have even become tall enough to be classed a mountain.

  5. Hmm it seems like your site ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess

    I'll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog.
    I as well am an

    aspiring blog writer but I'm still new to the whole thing. Do you have any tips for first-time blog

    writers? I'd genuinely appreciate it.

  12. With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any issues of plagorism

    or copyright violation? My website has a lot of exclusive content

    I've either written myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up

    all over the web without my authorization. Do you know any

    methods to help prevent content from being ripped off? I'd

  13. I have to show thanks to

    this writer just for bailing me out of this

    trouble. Just after browsing through the world wide web and obtaining

    ideas which were not powerful, I figured my entire life was

    done. Living without the

    strategies to the problems you have solved by means of this


    site is a crucial case, as well as ones which could have badly

    damaged my career if I hadn't encountered your web page. The talents and kindness in controlling all the

    details was very helpful. I am not sure what I would've done if I
    had not discovered such a thing like this. I'm able to at this moment look ahead to my future. Thank you so

    much for this skilled and

    sensible help. I will not hesitate to refer your blog post to any person who needs to have tips

    on this topic.

    you actually were able to make me a believer unfortunately

    problem with your jumps in assumptions and


    one would do nicely to fill in all those gaps. When you actually can accomplish that, I will undoubtedly be amazed.

  38. Throughout the great design of things you

    secure a B- for effort and hard work. Where you misplaced me ended up
    being in the specifics. As it is said, the devil is in the details.

    more accurate in this article. Having said that,

    permit me inform you what

    did do the job. Your text

    is certainly incredibly

    powerful which is possibly the reason why

    I am making the effort in order to comment. I do not make it a regular habit of

    doing that. Next, while I can

    certainly notice the jumps in reason you come up with, I am not

    necessarily confident of how you appear to

    connect the details which help to make

    the actual final result. For the moment I will, no doubt

    yield to your position but wish in the future you connect your dots better.

    screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
