Volcanos Volcanoes of italy Why do many people live close to a volcanoes Magna rising from deep inside the earth contains a range of minerals. As the rock cools, minerals are precipitated out. This means that minerals such as tin, silver, gold, copper and even diamonds can be found in volcanic rocks. Most of the metallic minerals mined around the world, particularly copper, gold, silver, lead and zinc are found deep below extinct volcanoes. This makes the areas ideal for mining. Active and dormant volcanoes have the same mineralisation, so like extinct volcanoes, they are rich sources of minerals. Hot gasses escaping through vents also bring minerals to the surface, notably sulphur, which collects around the vents as it condenses and solidifies. Locals collect the sulphur and sell it.
Volcanos Volcanoes of italy Where volcanoes are • Mount Vesuvius • Pompeii was an ancient Roman city, buried by a volcanic eruption of Vesuvius. 2000 years later, archaeologists uncovered the city. The people in ancient Pompeii did not have a chance to escape. The city had been quickly buried by volcanic ash. • When archaeologists dug out the city, two thousand years later, they found petrified bread still in the ovens that had been baking that day. Archaeologists learned a great deal from the ruins of this ancient city because it had been so well preserved.
