extrusive igneous rock
What two types of igneous rock are formed as magma or lava cools?
The two types of igneous rock are extrusive, those formed from molten material at or on the surface; and intrusive, those that solidify from molten material below ground.
What common rock is formed from the solidification of molten material?
porous rocks called igneous rocks
What is the material that igneous rock is made of called?
Igneous rock is formed from the crystallization of molten magma or lava. Intrusive igneous rock is formed beneath Earth's crust from magma. Extrusive igneous rock is formed above Earth's crust from the crystallization of lava.

Why is igneous rock found on a volcanic island?
Igneous rock is rock that formed from molten material. Volcanoes erupt lava and pyroclastic material, which forms extrusive igneous rock. Magma can solidify with in a volcano, forming intrusive igneous rock.
What is the difference between molten and igneous rock?
