No, magma is molten rock, and it is a semi liquid that exists below the surface (when it's above the surface, it's called lava). When magma cools underground it becomes an intrusive igneous rock which is composed of combinations of various minerals.

Does magma contain minerals?
Of coarse, magma is a melted mixture of rocks.
How the minerals formed by magma?
Magma is molten rock, as the magma cools the minerals crystallize out of it, the slower it cools, the larger the crystals.
What process is required for minerals to crystallize to magma?
Magma rises when it is being pushed or heated from below.
How are minerals formed from magma and lava?
'fraid not. some minerals form from magma, which is hot, liquid rock material INSIDE Earth's surface. Not on Earth's surface.
The process of minerals formation from magma is called?
Crystallization is when minerals form from magma. Crystallization takes time.
What are the similarities between a felsic magma andmafic magma?
Both consist of molten rock and minerals
What is the relationship between the rocks and minerals?
Rocks are composed of minerals. For example, granite is an igneous rock primarily made up of the minerals feldspar, quartz, and mica.

What is the relationship between magma and element?
it depends which one.
Can minerals crystallize out of magma when it melts?
Yes, minerals can crystalize when magma melts.
How are mineral formed by crystallization from magma?
As magma cools, elements combine to form minerals.

Minerals that form from magma are formed by?
Several minerals form in slow cooling magma. Some of those minerals are quartz, plagioclase feldspar, and potassium feldspar. These are the same minerals that are found in granite.
