Mountains are pieces of high land usually 300 metres above sea level. Most mountains do not have flat tops. Plateaus are pieces of high land with a flat top. There are 5 different types of mountains. This book explores all five types of mountains.
Fold Mountains:
Fold mountains form where tectonic plates bump into each other. The plates can push and fold over one another. They form humps on the Earth's surface. The Himalayas, Karakoram, Rocky mountains, European Alps and Cape Fold Range are all examples of fold mountains.
Fault Block Mountains:
The movement of the tectonic plates sometimes causes the Earth's surface to split into blocks. These cracks or splits are called fault lines. When these blocks are pushed or pulled upwards, downwards or sideways they form fault block mountains. The Chaman mountain in Balochistan, the Salt Ranges in Punjab and fault block mountains in Sierra Nevada range are all examples of fault block mountains.
Volcanic Mountains:
Volcanic mountains are formed in places where volcanoes erupt. When lava spreads out over the land and cools down it forms a layer on the land. This process repeats each time the volcano erupts. Over time this forms a mountain. There are even volcanic mountains under the sea. Mount Etna, Mount Kilimanjaro and the Mayon volcano are all examples of volcanic mountains.
