Here are some definitions that might clarify something 🙂

Holuhraun ([ˈhɔ:lur̥øin]) is a large lava field just north of the Vatnajökull ice cap, in the Icelandic Highlands, in Suður-Þingeyjarsýsla, Northeastern Region, Iceland.

Several types of volcanic eruptions—wherein lava, tephra (ash, lapilli, volcanic bombs and blocks), and assorted gases are expelled from a volcanic vent or fissure—have been distinguished by volcanologists.

Iceland (/ˈaɪslənd/; Icelandic: Ísland [ˈistlant]) is a Nordic island country between the North Atlantic and the Arctic Ocean.
