The tiny island of Trindade is located in the South Atlantic Ocean approximately parallel in Vitória, Espírito Santo, 1,140 km far from the coast and 48 km from the island of Martin Vaz. It eroded the top of a large volcanic mountain which is part of an alignment of submarine volcanic hills, the Vitoria-Trindade lineament. Rests on the seafloor approximately 5,500 m depth.
Its rocks are lavas and intrusions strongly alkaline and sodium-subsaturadas silica, and several pyroclastic rocks. The island is almost entirely composed of volcanic and subvolcanic formed between the end of the Pliocene and Holocene.
It is the only place in Brazil that is still recognizable part of an extinct volcanic cone, the volcano's Seawall.
Other buildings of this volcanic lineament located between Trinity - Martim Vaz and the coast were completely destroyed by the sea, flattened to less than 100 m deep, now constituting guyots, commonly called banks, but the islands, perhaps, because of its volcanic activity persisted for longer Still rise above the ocean surface.
