Tectonic plates in Iceland. The tectonic plates whose turbulent interactions formed Iceland, are the Eurasian tectonic plate and the North American tectonic plate. Spanning the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, Iceland emerged as a result of the divergent, spreading, boundary between these two plates and the activity of IcelandÂ´s own hotspot or mantle plume.
The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is visible on land. Iceland's landscapes forged by the processes of volcanism include rift valleys, geysers, hot springs, rhyolite mountains, columnar basalt formations, lava fields and lunar-like craters.Subglacial volcanism has created table mountains in northern and southern Iceland.he Mid-Atlantic Ridge is visible on land.
