Volcanic Neck
The surrounding rock weathers more easily than the magma in the pipe. The resultant structure will first appear as a low flat protrusion which is slightly elevated from its surroundings. With additional weathering of the surrounding rock, the hardened magma may appear as a tower with possible basaltic columnar structure known as a volcanic plug or volcanic neck.
What else can I help you with?
When magma comes up to earths surface and hardens what is it called?
When magma comes up to Earth's surface and hardens, it is called lava.
When magma hardens and comes to the earths surface what is it called?
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.
Magma that forces its way into rocks and hardens is called a extrusion or fault or unconformity or intrusion?
Magma that forces its way into rocks and hardens is called intrusion.
What is Magma hardened in a horizontal crack?
Magma that hardens in a horizontal crack typically forms a thin, sheet-like intrusion called a sill. Sills are created when magma is injected parallel to the existing rock layers. As the magma cools and solidifies, it forms a horizontal layer of igneous rock within the crack.
What landform is created when plates diverge (move apart)?
A mid-ocean ridge is formed when plates diverge or move apart. This is where new crust is created as magma rises to fill the gap created by the separating plates.
What is it called when magma hardens in a volcanoes pipe?
a volcanic neck forms when magma hardens in a volcano's pipe and is later exposed.
When magma hardens in a volcano's pipe the result will eventually be a landform called a?
When magma hardens in a volcano's pipe, the result will eventually be a volcanic neck or volcanic plug. This landform is a solidified remnant of magma that once filled the volcano's vent.

volcanic neck
When magma hardens in a volcanoes pipe the result will eventually be a landforms called a?

When magma hardens in a volcanoes pie the result eventually be a land form called a?

Two enteresting facts about how volcanoes form?
Volcanoes are formed through a crack in the earth's surface where magma spills out from inside the earth. When lava spills out of a volcano, it eventually hardens and gives volcanoes their cone shapes.
What rocks form when magma cools and hardens?
Igneous rock is what forms when magma cools and hardens.
Is all igneous rock formed by volcanoes?
No. Igneous rock is simply the solid substance left when magma or lava hardens, above ground or below ground.
What do volcanoes have?
Volcanoes have magma.
Is magma found on earthquakes or volcanoes?
Magma is generally associated with volcanoes
Rock that are produced when magma or lava cools and hardens are called?
Rocks that are produced when magma or lava cools and hardens are called Igneous rocks.
Rocks that are produced when magma or lava cools and hardens are called .?
Rocks that are produced when magma or lava cools and hardens are called Igneous rocks.
