ABSTRACT: The article presents new views on volcanism and earthquakes. The problem
of the scientific basis for the interpretation of geotectonic theories was discussed.
The interpretation of the mantle plume phenomenon according to the theory of
expansion and the theory of primal forces of nature is presented. The heat
source in the Earth’s core is thermonuclear reactions. The cause of earthquakes is not collisions of
lithospheric plates, but plasma eruptions. The stresses in the rock mass, causing global fractures, arise due to the
increase in the size of nuclides in the process of plasma recombination. The
oldest basalts that make up the oceanic plates remain invariably along
the shores of continents. The
widespread view of the subduction of lithospheric plates and vertical
convection cells of rock matter should be regarded as a scientific fiction.
