Does lava have large or small crystals?

Rocks formed from lava (known as extrusive igneous rocks, because the lava comes to the surface) can be any size - large or small. However, the density of the rock and the size of the crystals making up the rock is informative. Less "thick" (viscous) lava will produce higher-density rocks. The more silicon is contained in the lava/rocks, the thicker it will be. Thinner lava contains more iron and less silicon. The faster a lava cools, the smaller the crystals in the rock will be. By using crystal size in minerals, geologists can determine how fast the lava cooled, which helps to determine the type of eruption and the surface conditions when it occurred.
