Long-lived [[basalt|basaltic]] [[lava]] fountains that [[eruption|erupt]] [[spatter]], [[scoria]] or [[cinder]], and other [[tephra]] from a central vent typically build steep-sided [[cone]]s called spatter-and-cinder cones. The greatest bulk of these cones consists of spatter, but during fountaining a lava flow usually pours down one side of the cone. Eruptions that build spatter and cinder cones are much longer in duration and much more varied in intensity than those that eject only spatter to build spatter cones and [[rampart]]s. <ref>[http://vulcan.wr.usgs.gov/Glossary/volcano_terminology.html Glossary of Volcano and Related Terminology (USGS/VHP)]</ref>
