| 释义 |
Midnight Volcano is a buried extinct volcano near Midnight, Mississippi[1] in southern Humphreys County. The volcano was last active in the Late Cretaceous period and is associated with the volcanic activity of the Monroe Uplift,[2][3] which occurred around 80 million years ago. The Jackson Volcano, southeast of Midnight, was active around 10 million years later.[4] Volcanic debris from Midnight or other volcanoes of the Monroe Uplift were found in the "Coffee sand," a Cretaceous sand layer to the north of the volcano.
