Magma deposits are formed when molten rock, or magma, rises from the Earth's mantle to the surface or remains underground. As magma cools and solidifies, it crystallizes to create igneous rocks. The formation can occur during volcanic eruptions or through the slow cooling of magma in subterranean chambers. Over time, these deposits can become concentrated in specific areas, leading to the formation of mineral-rich ore bodies.
