Volcanoes are classified as active,

dormant, extinct. Active volcanoes have

a recent history of eruptions; they are
likely to erupt again. Dormant volcanoes
have not erupted for a very long time
but may erupt at a future time. Extinct
volcanoes are not expected to erupt in
the future.
An active volcano is a volcano that has
erupted during the Holocene, is
currently erupting, or has the potential
to erupt in the future. A volcano that is
not currently erupting but could erupt in
the future is known as a dormant
volcano. Volcanoes the will not erupt
again are known as extinct volcanoes.
 Volcanoes with no record of eruptions
are considered as extinct or inactive.
Their physical form since their last
activity has been altered by agents of
weathering and erosion with the
formation of deep and long gullies
inactive does not necessarily in indicate
the volcano will not erupt again.
 MOUNT
PINATUBO
The world's largest volcanic
eruption to happen in the past
100 years was the June 15,
1991, eruption of Mount
Pinatubo in the Philippines.

exploded into umbrella ash
clouds, hot flows of gas and
ash descended the volcano's
flanks and lahars swept down
valleys.
