What is the name of the rock that is formed from molten rock that cools deep within the earth?
The general name is intrusive igneous rock. The specific name depends on the composition. The most well known example is granite, but other common types include diorite, syenite, and gabbro.
Is trachyte intrusive or extrusive?
Trachyite is the extrusive equivalent of syenite.
What is olivine syenite?
Extremely iron-rich olivine is rare, but is present in some nepheline syenite. Other minerals common in minor amounts include sodium-rich pyroxene, biotite.

Is syenite granitic?

How does synite occur?
Syenites are generally formed in areas where the Earth's crust is the thickest. To produce syenite, you must melt a granitic or igneous rock so that only a portion of the rock has melted. Silica melt is produced when the melting is done slowly and at a very low temperature. This forms syenite.
