No. Rocks can be classified into three general groups: Igneous rocks, which form from molten rock Sedimentary rocks, which form from broken-down rocks turned back into stone Metamorphic rocks, which form as rocks change due to heat and pressure without melting. Igneous rocks are further divided into intrusive rocks, which cool underground, and extrusive rocks, which cool above ground. Only extrusive igneous rocks are considered volcanic.
