Block mountains are formed by two processes. One process is faulting another process is folding. One of the key example is mount Rwenzori in western Uganda. Formation by faulting is when the earth's interior is over heated and magma inside divergent causing the earth crust to tear due to the forces that pull apart from each other. When this process continues, lines of weaknesses are created and due to heavy weight by the blocks, they finally sink. The middle part is left in the middle which is the block mountain. Another process is folding which results as a result of opposite forces with in the earth crust pushing to the same central region. This leads the taering apart of the earth's blocks. When the process continues, the central part is forced up by uplifting forces to form a block mountain. This is how block mountains are formed.
