What are the 2 ways igneous rock are is formed?

Igneous rocks are formed through volcanic activity, where molten rock (magma) cools and solidifies either on the Earth's surface (extrusive igneous rock) or beneath the surface (intrusive igneous rock). These cooling processes result in the formation of crystals within the rock, determining its texture and composition.

What types of rocks can become igneous rocks?

All rocks can become igneous rocks. With weathering and erosion, an igneous rock can become a sediment. Then with compaction and cementation, it can become a sedimentary rock. With heat and pressure, it will turn into a metamorphic rock. Or it can melt and turn into an igneous rock. There are many more ways rocks can change types... that is the rock cycle.

What are facts about igneous?

.The oldest rock known today is the Igneous rock. .Igneous rock can be any colour..The word "Igneous" is a Greek word that means fire.
