If a magma of higher temperature cools down, certain minerals solidify first. Eventually, those minerals that remain liquid at the lowest temperatures solidify the latest. The rock that is then formed is Granite (if it's intrusive), or Rhyolite (if it's extrusive)
Magma cooling beneath the surface creates intrusive igneous rocks.
Igneous rocks are formed by the cooling and hardening of molten material called magma.
The composition of the magma, which includes the proportion of silicate minerals and gases, and the cooling rate of the magma are two factors that influence the type of igneous rock that forms. Slow cooling leads to the formation of large crystals (intrusive rocks), while rapid cooling results in small or no crystals (extrusive rocks).
An igneous rock has crystallized and solidified from molten rock (magma) either below ground (intrusive igneous rock) or at or near the surface (extrusive igneous rock). Igneous rocks are composed of minerals.
The type of rock that forms at the edges of cooling magma chambers within the Earth is called igneous rock. Specifically, when magma cools and solidifies slowly beneath the Earth's surface, it forms intrusive igneous rocks, such as granite. If the magma erupts to the surface and cools quickly, it forms extrusive igneous rocks, like basalt. The cooling process and composition of the magma determine the specific characteristics of the resulting igneous rock.

Magma IS made of melted rock and minerals. Not what type of rock. All types of rock.
The type of rock formed by cooling of Magma or Lava is Igneous

Oceanic plates are primarily made of basalt, which is a type of volcanic rock that forms from the cooling and solidification of magma on the ocean floor. Basalt is dark in color and has a fine-grained texture.
The rate of cooling of the magma determines the type of mineral formed by the magma or lava..
