Any rock created by the cooling of magma or molten material is classified as an igneous rock. These rocks can either be cooled in the earth or on the earths surface. Rocks cooled inside the earth are called intrusive igneous rocks, and have large crystals. Rocks cooled on the earth's surface are called extrusive igneous rocks. These rocks, due to faster cooling times, have very very tiny crystals.

The rock formed by molten rock that has cooled and solidified is called igneous rock. This type of rock can be classified into two main types: intrusive (or plutonic) igneous rock, which solidifies beneath the Earth's surface, and extrusive (or volcanic) igneous rock, which solidifies on the surface after a volcanic eruption. Common examples of igneous rock include granite (intrusive) and basalt (extrusive).
