(at around 23 mins) Rachel mentions an incident in Paricutin. She's referring to the 1,500 foot (457.2 meters) volcano that emerged over a few months in 1942 in Paricutin, Michoacan, Mexico.
The lava was primarily made of methylcellulose, the thickening agent used in fast-food milkshakes.
The ash was made mostly of ground newspaper.
This was the second movie of 1997 based on volcanic eruption. The first one, Dante's Peak (1997), is considered to be a more accurate depiction of volcanic eruptions to happen in the nature.
An elaborate miniaturized portion of the doomed city, which was destroyed as the lava flowed, was constructed inside hangar number one at the San Bernardino International Airport.

"Amy: Sometimes magma can find one of those fissures and rise up through it. Roark: What's magma? Rachel: Lava. Roark: Lava? Right here in L.A? Amy: It is one of the possibilities.

A week later there's a volcano a thousand feet high. There's no history of anything until it happens. Then there is."
