(Intrusion) You can learn how old the rock layers are around it. the rock layers around under and all around the intrusion are always older than the intrusion itself. (EXTRUSION) the layers of rock bellow the extrusion is older than the extrusion.


What tells geologists how extrusion forms?

I am learning about this in my Science class, and when a geologist looks at an extrusion, they know it's an extrusion because it is Igneous rock, and an extrusion helps tell the reletive ages of the layers around it.

An igneous intrusion is younger than the rock into which it intruded.


What clues does extrusion tell geologists?

Geologists study where intrusion and extrusion formed in relation to other rock layers. This helps geologists understand the relative ages of the different types of rock! Hope it helps;)😊

An extrusion is an igneous rock layer formed when lava flows onto Earth's surface and hardens. Extrusions are always younger than the rocks below it.


What is a igneous extrusion?

Lava that hardens on the surface, and are younger than the rock layers below.
