Hydrothermal vents are fissures on the seabed from which geothermally heated water discharges. They are commonly found near volcanically active places, areas where tectonic plates are moving apart at mid-ocean ridges, ocean basins, and hotspots.

Hydrothermal deposits are rocks and mineral ore deposits formed by the action of hydrothermal vents.
