extrusive
Typically, intrusive crystals are larger than extrusive crystals because intrusive rocks cool slowly beneath the Earth's surface, allowing larger crystals to form, while extrusive rocks cool quickly at the surface, producing smaller crystals.
Basalt can't see crystals and basalt is extrusive. Granite you can see the crystals and is intrusive.
Intrusive rock normally has visible crystals. Extrusive igneous rock has small crystals. A black extrusive igneous rock with small crystals could be basalt.
Yes. All intrusive igneours rocks and many extrusive rocks have crystals.
== Grain size. Most intrusive igneous rocks will have visible crystals. Crystals in most extrusive igneous rocks are not easily visible.
Intrusive Rocks are found underneath Earths crust, while Extrusive rocks are found above Earths crust.
instrusive Rock
Large crystals are typically characteristic of intrusive igneous rocks, which form beneath the Earth's surface from slow cooling of magma. Extrusive igneous rocks cool quickly at or near the Earth's surface, resulting in smaller crystals or glassy textures.
Generally, false. Intrusive rocks cool far more slowly than extrusive ones, so the crystals have time to grow larger.
If a rock has large crystals, it is an intrusive rock. Intrusive rocks form underneath the Earth's surface. Magma cools slowly so it has time to form large crystals. An example is granite, where you can see the crystals with your naked eye. Rocks that have small crystals are extrusive rocks. Extrusive rocks are ones that form from lava (blasted out of a volcano) so they cool very quickly, not allowing large crystals to form. An example is obsidian, where you cannot visibly see the small crystals; it just looks like one black, glassy rock.
