It's very rare to have an extrusive Peridotite, but under the right conditions Komatite can form. It's similar in appearance to Basalt, but has long ( anywhere between 1-10 cm) criss-crossing needles of olivine or pyroxene.
Trachyite is the extrusive equivalent of syenite.
Dacite can be both intrusive and extrusive. Intrusive dacite forms when magma solidifies beneath the Earth's surface, while extrusive dacite forms when lava erupts on the Earth's surface and cools quickly.
Andesite is considered an extrusive igneous rock.
Peridotite is a dense, coarse-grained igneous rock.

Peridotite is an intrusive igneous rock, meaning it forms below the Earth's surface from the slow cooling of magma. It is primarily composed of olivine and pyroxene minerals, and is commonly found in the upper mantle.
Yes. Andesite is the extrusive equivalent of diorite
Trachyite is the extrusive equivalent of syenite.

None. Ultramafic peridotite is not a volcanic rock (is intrusive). Basalt rock (yes, volcanic) is the efusive equivalent of peridotites. Do you know that beneath peridotite, a rock named kimberlite is found and this is the main source of diamonds, being widely beneficiated in south africa? Good luck with your ultramafic and may be you can find some diamonds too !!
The extrusive chemical equivalent of intrusive granite is rhyolite.
Peridotite is mainly composed of olivine, along with pyroxenes and minor amounts of other minerals like spinel and garnet. These minerals give peridotite its characteristic green color.
peridotite
The mineral olivine is present in much greater quantities in peridotite compared to gabbro. Olivine is a common mineral in peridotite and gives it its characteristic green color, while gabbro contains less olivine and more plagioclase feldspar.
