A pluton is a large body of igneous rock which has formed underground as rising magma has cooled.

A mass of rock formed when a large body of magma cools inside the Earth is called an intrusion or pluton. These formations are referred to as intrusive igneous rocks and can vary in size and shape depending on the depth and cooling rate of the magma within the Earth's crust.
A tabular concordant pluton is a sill.A Sill is a flat concordant pluton. And a tabular means flat, like a table or tablet. Thus a sill is a tabular concordant pluton.In fact a the wikipedia article for "sill (geology)", as of the 01:33, 19 February 2009 update by Vsmith, read " a sill is a tabular pluton that has intruded between older layers of sedimentary rock, beds of volcanic lava or tuff, or even along the direction of foliation in metamorphic rock." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sill_(geology)

A large igneous intrusion is called a pluton. Plutons are formed when molten rock (magma) solidifies beneath the Earth's surface, resulting in large bodies of igneous rock. Examples of plutons include batholiths, stocks, and laccoliths.
A tabular discordant pluton is a large igneous intrusion that cuts across existing rock layers in a horizontal or nearly horizontal orientation. This type of pluton is also known as a sheet intrusion due to its tabular shape and discordant nature where it disrupts the surrounding rock layers. Tabular discordant plutons are typically formed when magma is injected into the Earth's crust and spreads laterally to create a flat or sheet-like body of intrusive rock.
