There is a special volcanic site unexplained, outside the volcanic zones.
Snjófjöll Volcanic Site
Or is it inside the Snæfellsnes Volcanic Zone? Snjófjöll fits into a certain pattern associated with the convection rolls division lines. It is the counterpart of Askja, in the same way as Reykholtsdalur resembles Kverkfjöll and Hveragerði along with Hengill resemble Öræfajökull.
The location of Snjófjöll within the Western NS-axis of Iceland
In this way, the occurrence of volcanic activity at that spot becomes understandable. So is Snjófjöll Volcanic Site a part of Snæfellsnes Volcanic Belt, or is it the smallest volcanic zone of Iceland?
I have a BS degree in geology, BA in anthropology, graduated in Chinese language and as a certified tourist guide. I provide this website about my contribution to answer the greatest question remaining about our Earth. I have analyzed the convection rolls within the Earth's mantle and how they affect the surface. This makes it possible to provide many interesting examples about geology found on my blog.
