The volcanoes generally become younger eastward at a rate of convert 2 cm in 1 abbr on to convert 3.3 cm in 1 abbr on a year. The Nazko Cone , which last erupted only 7,200 years ago, is the youngest Anahim volcano. These volcanoes are thought to have formed as a result of the North American Plate sliding westward over a long lived center of upwelling magma called the Anahim hotspot . The hotspot is thought to be similar to the one feeding the Hawaiian Islands . Future volcanism is most likely in the form of basalt ic cinder cone s, but eruptions of less mafic magma, typical of the eastern portions of the belt, cannot be ruled out. A 2007 2008 Nazko earthquakes series of earthquakes began October 9th, 2007 in the vicinity of Nazko Cone which was related to intense subterraenean volcanic activity in the area.
