they are formed above and below ground
It is formed both- above ground (as extrusive igneous rocks) or below ground (as intrusive igneous rocks).
Basalt is an igneous rock formed at or near the surface. It can be drawn into the mantle through the movements of plates at subduction zones.
Igneous rocks are types of rocks that are formed by fire. They can be formed in the ground from magma that gets trapped in air pockets. Above ground they can form when lava cools along the ground.
Geologists classify rocks by where they are formed; above ground or under ground

A granitic rock is an igneous rock formed by magma cooling as it approaches the earth's surface. Different rocks within the granite family are distinguished by whether they cool beneath the surface of the earth or above it. The crystalline structure of the rocks varies based on this.

Extrusive igneous rocks are one type of rocks that can be formed above the ground. Sedimentary rocks can also be formed above the ground.

Scoria is formed above ground during volcanic eruptions.
Extrusive igneous rocks and some sedimentary rocks are formed above ground.

It is formed both- above ground (as extrusive igneous rocks) or below ground (as intrusive igneous rocks).
Extrusive igneous rock is formed from the crystallization of magma (lava) above ground.
Basalt is an igneous rock formed at or near the surface. It can be drawn into the mantle through the movements of plates at subduction zones.
Because crystals in granite had more time to form
