^ If you took this answer then is Magma relevant to Ice?
Magma forms when the solid rock in the crust and upper mantle melts.
^Why not erase it then?
Igneous rock
The mantle is made up of solid rock, specifically solid mantle rock in the upper part and more ductile solid rock in the lower part. Magma is only present when it is partially molten rock that forms in specific regions of the mantle.
No, solid rock located deep in the mantle is not called magma. Magma is molten rock that is found beneath the Earth's surface in the mantle and crust. Solid rock in the mantle is known as the lithosphere.
Magma originates from the Earth's mantle, which is a layer of hot, semi-solid rock located beneath the Earth's crust. It forms when rocks in the mantle melt due to high temperatures and pressure. Magma can then rise to the Earth's surface through volcanic activity, such as volcanic eruptions.

Magma
The outer layer of the earth is the crust. Earth has three layers. Beneath the crust is the mantle, which is made of semi-solid magma, solid rocks and minerals.
Magma primarily comes from the mantle, which lies between Earth's crust and the outer core. It forms as a result of the heat and pressure in the mantle causing rocks to melt and rise towards the surface through volcanic activity.
The solid portion of the upper mantle which behaves as a brittle solid is known as the lithospheric mantle. This part of the upper mantle along with the crust forms tectonic plates.
The rocks are primarily found in the Earth's crust, mantle, and core. The crust is the outermost layer and consists of solid rock. The mantle is composed of solid and semi-solid rock, while the core is mostly made of metal.
The mantle layer of the planet Earth is made of hot liquid rock (called magma). The crust, upon which we live and type, floats on the mantle.
The crust is thin and solid and the mantle is rockie
The thin solid outermost layer above the mantle is the crust, and the crust is the layer we live on.
