Extrusive (volcanic) igneous rocks.
Igneous rocks [fire rocks] are formed either underground or above ground. Underground they are formed when the melted rock [called magma] deep within the earth becomes trapped in small pockets, and as these pockets of magma cool slowly underground the magma becomes igneous rocks. Igneous rocks are also formed when volcanoes erupt causing the magma to rise above the earth's surface. When magma appears above the earth, it is called lava. Igneous rocks are formed as the lava cools above ground. Examples of igneous rocks are granite, scoria, pumice, obsidian and basalt.
Igneous rocks that form below the Earth's surface are called intrusive or plutonic rocks. These rocks cool and solidify slowly, allowing large mineral crystals to form. Examples include granite and diorite.
Igneous rocks can be found both in the ground and above ground. Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava, which can happen below the Earth's surface (intrusive igneous rocks) or on the surface (extrusive igneous rocks).
Igneous rocks that cool above ground are called extrusive or volcanic rocks. Examples include basalt, andesite, and rhyolite. These rocks form when magma erupts onto the Earth's surface and cools rapidly.
They can be formed underground or above ground. Underground, they are formed when melted rock, called magma, deep under the earth's surface is trapped in small pockets. As these pockets of magma cool slowly underground, the magma develops into igneous rocks. Igneous rocks are also formed when volcanoes erupt, causing the magma to rise above the earth's crust. When magma appears above the earth, it is called lava. Igneous rocks are formed as the lava cools above ground.

Igneous rocks that form below the Earth's surface are called intrusive igneous rocks (or plutonic).
They can be formed underground or above ground. Underground, they are formed when melted rock, called magma, deep under the earth's surface is trapped in small pockets. As these pockets of magma cool slowly underground, the magma develops into igneous rocks. Igneous rocks are also formed when volcanoes erupt, causing the magma to rise above the earth's crust. When magma appears above the earth, it is called lava. Igneous rocks are formed as the lava cools above ground.
Extrusive igneous rocks are igneous rocks that form above earth's surface. They are usually fine-grained due to the rate in which they cool.
Yes, igneous rocks can be formed both above and below the ground. When molten rock solidifies beneath the Earth's surface, it forms intrusive igneous rocks like granite. If molten rock reaches the Earth's surface and cools rapidly, it forms extrusive igneous rocks like basalt.
