The volcano eruption happened at around 10:00 p.m. local time on November 27, 2006. It happened in the eastern of Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). As Mount Nyamulagira is a sheild volcano, it was probably formed when two plates move away in opposite directions, a gap was formed and thus hot lava formed from the magma derived form the Earth mantle, rises through this gap. The lava then flows for some distance over the surface before it sets and thus forming the broad and low volcano, Mount Nyamulagira.
