Intrusive Igneous rocks. Examples: obsidian, magma
Large crystals are diagnostic of an intrusive igneous rock, as large crystals form as the source magma cools slowly.
Granite is an intrusive type of igneous rock Also since it is intrusive it cools very slowly and forms large crystals and coarse (large) grained igneous rock.
They are called intrusive igneous rocks.
No. Intrusive igneous rocks have large crystals because they cool slowly.
No, because intrusive rocks form underneath the earth and cool very slowly which causes larger minerals and extrusive rocks form above the ground which cool very rapidly which causes very small minerals. so i hope you get it. Now I'm done.

Large crystalline grains.
They have mineral grains of nearly equal size, and have large crystals because they were cooled slowly.

They are called intrusive igneous rocks.
Igneous rock formed in the earths crust is known as intrusive rock. The magma that forms it cools slowly and therefore, creates rock with large crystals. An example of an intrusive igneous rock is granite.
Large mineral crystals can form when magma is able to cool slowly underground, creating intrusive igneous rock.
As a general rule extrusive igneous rock crystals are very small, often microscopic, as the rock cools very rapidly. Conversely intrusive magma often cools so slowly that sizeable crystals can develop.

Difference in temperature of the varying layers of the Earth's surface where either of the rocks solidify,causes difference in size of grains of rocks.When solidified below the Earth's surface,the grains are comparatively larger crystals than extrusive igneous ones.Intrusive rocks form underneath the Earth's surface(eg.,granite). Magma cools slowly so it has time to form large crystals.Extrusive rocks are ones that form from lava (blasted out of a volcano) so they cool very quickly, not allowing large crystals to form(eg.,obsidian).
