Fuego is a stratovolcano located in Guatemala, formed by the subduction of the Cocos Plate beneath the Caribbean Plate. This process leads to the melting of mantle material, generating magma that rises to the surface, resulting in explosive eruptions and the accumulation of volcanic materials. Its formation is characterized by alternating layers of lava flows, ash, and volcanic debris, contributing to its steep, conical shape. Over time, continuous eruptions have shaped Fuego into one of Central America's most active and prominent volcanoes.
