Pressure-driven Fracturing

Pressure-Driven Fracturing is a geological process in which tensile fractures propagate through the crust due to the excess fluid pressure generated by ascending magma within a volcanic plumbing system, distinguishing it from fracturing induced by tectonic stresses or external loads.
