El Salvador 3d Render Topographic Map Border Digital Art By Frank The geology of el salvador is underlain by rocks dating to the paleozoic. prior to the pennsylvanian, sediments deposited and were intensely deformed, intruded by granite rocks and metamorphosed. northern central america took shape during uplift in the triassic, large than its current area and extending east to the nicaragua rise. San salvador. (stratovolcano 1893 m 6,211 ft) san salvador volcano is a massive stratovolcano immediately northwestwest of el salvador city. its modern summit cone is also called the boqueron stratovolcano. it formed within a 6 km wide caldera left by the collapse of the predecessor volcano about 40,000 years ago. According to marn volcanologists, the emergence of volcanoes in el salvador was facilitated by its close location to two tectonic plates. the cocos tectonic plate is 50 kilometers off the salvadoran coast and collides with the caribbean plate. el salvador is in the collision zone of both plates; this facilitates the formation of volcanoes. Understanding of this tectonic complexity and associated seismic hazards will be facilitated greatly by the long term operation of high sensitivity local seismograph networks, such as that operated by, and currently being upgraded by, the servicio nacional de estudios territoriales (snet) of el salvador.
