Lava pumps into the sea with explosive force, sending steam, sulfur dioxide, rock, ash, glass particles and tones of black sand skyward in a flash. The rock and sand return to earth close y but the rest of the particles sail for miles on the wind.

~ Molten Lava Meets Pacific Ocean ~ Island of Hawaii July 08

A recent phenomenon; massive explosions take place at the base of the plume where molten lava is pumping into the ocean on the Island of Hawaii.

The plume is comprised of steam, sulfur dioxide, hydrachloric acid, glass particles, ash, rock, and black sand. As the molten lava pours out of the lava tubes that carried it from magma chambers under the flanks of Mauna Loa’s Kilauea volcano above, it instantly explodes into black sand and rock fragments. Many of these molten chunks will continue floating and streaming on the ocean. This is the most ocean entry lava that has been seen here in local memory.
