An A lens-shaped intrusive igneous mass close to Earth's surface is called a "laccolith." Laccoliths form when magma intrudes between layers of sedimentary rock and bulges the overlying strata, creating a dome-like structure. They are typically larger than sills and can lead to the formation of mountain ranges over geological time.

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.

What igneous rock that formed from lava that erupted into earths surface are called?
When igneous rock forms on the Earth's surface, including on the ocean floor, it's called extrusive. It's called intrusive rock when it forms beneath Earth's surface, such as in mines.
