Igneous rocks are crystallized from a liquid, molten rocks because the medium from which the igneous rock crystallizes is a fluid, the ions that will form the minerals are able to move freely. The hotter the fluid the greater the movement and freedom, and the quicker the crystallization takes place.
Extrusive igneous rock is the result of above ground crystallization.

Extrusive igneous rock is the result of above ground crystallization.
The chemical rock formed by the crystallization of excess dissolved minerals is called evaporite. Evaporites typically form in arid environments where water evaporates, leaving behind minerals such as halite (rock salt) and gypsum. As the water evaporates, the concentration of dissolved minerals increases, leading to their crystallization and eventual precipitation as solid rock.
When melted rock solidifies, it forms an igneous rock. This process is known as crystallization.

A plutonic rock is a rock that has formed at considerable depth. This happens by crystallization of magma or by chemical alteration.
