Answer: Convergent Boundries
Explanation:
Tectonic plates collide with one another, which can create "high folded mountains and a wide plateau." The Himalayas were formed this way.
Compared to the surrounding material, mantle plumes rise towards the Earth's surface from the core-mantle boundary because they are hotter and less dense (3) than the surrounding material. A mantle plume is a large column of hot rock that rises through the earth's mantle. This plume is hot enough to cause the rocks in the lower lithosphere to melt. When the plume reaches the bottom of the lithosphere, it spreads out forming a mushroom shape cap. The lithosphere is then pushed up and stretched out. This forms magma chambers which feed the surrounding surface volcanos.

Mining affects the land by creating loss of biodiversity, sinkholes, mudslides and contamination. That’s just a few affects mining can have on the land.
2. Petroleum.
The main risk that happens when extracting petroleum are oil spills. Some of the worst oil spills in history have caused major fires, explosions, and contamination in the area where they are at. What’s worse is that innocent little animals get caught in those oil spills and die.
Hope this helps and pls mark me brainliest if it did :)
