What type of igneous rock hardens under the surface?
The type of igneous rock that hardens under the earths surface is called the Intrusive Igneous Rock. Intrusive Igneous Rocks are of two main types, Hypabasal and Plutonic. The plutonic forms at deeper depths.
When melted rock cools or hardens on or under earths surface it forms what kind of rock?
It forms an igneous rock. If it is within the Earth, then it is an intrusive igneous rock (e.g. granite) and if it is erupted onto Earth's surface then it is an extrusive igneous rock (e.g. basalt).
What rock type is formed from the slow cooling of magma under the earths surface?
Magma cooling beneath the surface creates intrusive igneous rocks.
How and where are igneous rocks formed?
Igneous rocks are formed when molten magma cools and solidifies either beneath the Earth's surface (intrusive) or on the surface (extrusive). Intrusive igneous rocks are formed from magma that cools slowly underground, while extrusive igneous rocks are formed from lava that cools quickly on the surface.
Why are there are almost no extrusive ultra basic rocks in earths crust?
There are almost no extrusive rocks on the earths surface because they are all under the earths surface. They are mainly lower than the earths surface.
What is the name of the igneous rock that is formed under earths surface?
obsidian is one of them
When melted rock cools or hardens on it under earths surface it forms rock?
Igneous rock. Extrusive igneous rock forms at or near the surface, intrusive igneous rock forms below the surface.

What is under the earths surface and in the earths crust?
mantle

Which igneous rock forms under the surface?
Intrusive igneous rock forms from the cooling of magma below the surface. Granite, for example.

What is an earthqauake?
