Geology

Mont Brome might be the deep extension of a vastly eroded ancient volcanic complex, which was probably active about 125 million years ago.^[2] The mountain was created when the North American Plate moved westward over the New England hotspot,^[2] along with other mountains of the Monteregian Hills that form part of the vast Great Meteor hotspot track.
