Igneous rock which solidifies from magma underground is classified as intrusive igneous rock.
Igneous rocks that form below Earth's surface are called intrusive or plutonic rocks. These rocks are formed from the solidification of magma beneath the Earth's crust. Examples include granite, diorite, and gabbro.
When magma comes up to Earth's surface and hardens, it is called lava.
Igneous rocks formed at the Earth's surface are called extrusive igneous rocks. They form when magma cools and solidifies quickly on the Earth's surface, resulting in fine-grained or glassy textures. Examples include basalt and rhyolite.
Magma that hardens within the Earth's crust is called intrusive igneous rock. This type of rock forms when magma cools and solidifies beneath the Earth's surface, resulting in the formation of intrusive features like batholiths, dikes, and sills.
If the magma has hardened before being exposed at the surface it would be considered an intrusive igneous rock. It is hardens at or near the surface, it would be called extrusive igneous rock.
