Vulcanicity taking place on the earth’s surface is a natural disaster. Sometimes, along with its destructive impacts, creative impacts are also visible. 

A brief description of both these impacts of vulcanicity is given below:

1. Creative Impact: After spreading out, the lava which evolves from volcano gives rise to fertile soil. Black soil present in Indian sub – continent is an example of creative impact of vulcanicity . Vulcanicity plays an important role in evolution of belts rich in various types of minerals. 

2. Destructive Impact: Lava and other substances and gases which flow along with volcanic eruption harm human life and environment and also destroy the cultural scenario. Many lives are lost due to volcanic eruption. Immense loss is caused due to submergence of coastal areas. Crores of sea animals and creatures die due to vulcanicity.
