The floating mass of ice is known as an ice burg, the process of breaking free from the main glacier is called calving.

A piece of country rock that breaks off and becomes entrapped in a body of magma is called a xenolith.
This phenomenon is known as an iceberg calving. Iceberg calving occurs when a large piece of ice breaks off from a glacier or ice shelf and floats into the ocean, forming an iceberg. This process is a natural part of the glacier's movement and can be triggered by various factors, such as temperature changes or the ice shelf's structure.
A glacier is older than an iceberg, because an iceberg is a piece of ice that fell off a glacier.
Glacierette
This OS the process called budding. A new polyp will form from the part that broke off.
New icebergs float on sea water and are broken away from the ice floe in a process called calving. The iceberg calvesoff the floe.
