Trap Kivino, Canada

From series “Volcanoes that changed the face of the Earth”

Large igneous province Kevino is located in Canada. It is located in the Canadian Shield region, near Lake Superior. This formation originated in the Late Precambrian period. It has a rather complex structure. It is distinguished by a variety of breeds. According to some modern researchers, the sea was located in these places during the formation of the magma trap. Some features of the structure suggest that they could only have formed underwater during a lava eruption.

Trap Kivino, Canada One of the world's largest trap provinces is the location of unique natural attractions today. Lake Superior is considered the main attraction of these places. According to some research assumptions, it is a preserved part of the once huge sea. It is the largest and deepest in the Great Lakes system. Besides, Lake Superior is the largest freshwater lake in the world.

There is also another theory of the formation of a unique lake. Most modern scientists adhere to it. It could have formed in a hollow leftover from a huge glacier. This glacier had melted completely during the period of the eruption. The beautiful lake has many unique features. They indicate its unusual origin. The water in the lake is always very cold. It does not warm up above 4 degrees Celsius, even in the height of summer. However, Lake Superior never freezes in winter. Constant storms are the reason for this. Despite such features, the lake is rich in fish. Rare species of sturgeon and trout live in it. Next - British-Arctic Trap Formation
