The rock falls into the category of extrusive igneous rock. The specific type of rock depends on the type of lava. Basalt is the most common type, and is itself divided into a'a and pahoehoe. Other rocks that can form from lava include obsidian, andesite, trachyte, dacite, rhyolite, and phonolite.
Extrusive igneous rock is formed from the crystallization of minerals as the lava cools.

Lava is the name given to any still molten rock that is extruded onto the Earth's surface. When it cools it becomes an extrusive igneous rock such as basalt.
