Intrusive Igneous rocks. Examples: obsidian, magma
Large crystals are diagnostic of an intrusive igneous rock, as large crystals form as the source magma cools slowly.
When liquid rock cools slowly beneath the Earth's surface, intrusive igneous rocks are formed. These rocks have large crystals due to the slow cooling process, allowing sufficient time for mineral grains to grow. Examples include granite, diorite, and gabbro.
when it cools undera lot of pressure underground it is an intrusive igneous. If it cools on the surface of the earth then it is an extrusive igneous.
Granite is an intrusive type of igneous rock Also since it is intrusive it cools very slowly and forms large crystals and coarse (large) grained igneous rock.
They are called intrusive igneous rocks.

Porphyry can be either extrusive or intrusive. Extrusive porphyry forms from lava that cools quickly on the Earth's surface, while intrusive porphyry forms from magma that cools more slowly beneath the surface. Both types of porphyry have distinctive large crystals (phenocrysts) embedded in a fine-grained matrix.
They are called intrusive igneous rocks.
Intrusive rock cools slowly from magma underground, allowing large mineral crystals to form. This slow cooling process is why intrusive rocks, such as granite and diorite, have a coarse-grained texture.
Igneous rock formed in the earths crust is known as intrusive rock. The magma that forms it cools slowly and therefore, creates rock with large crystals. An example of an intrusive igneous rock is granite.
Intrusive igneous rocks are formed by slow cooling magma below the earth's surface. Extrusive igneous rock is formed by magma cooling quickly, at or near the surface.
