Igneous rocks thus occur in two ways, either as “extrusive” (on the surface) rocks or as “intrusive” (below the surface) bodies.

Igneous rocks are formed from magma from the process of crystallization. There are two ways to classify igneous rock: intrusive (in) and extrusive (out).

Intrusive, also known as plutonic rocks.

-crystallizes below earth's surface

-found inside the volcano

-slow cooling period

-forms into large crystals

Extrusive, also known as volcanic rocks.

-erupts onto the surface

-found outside the volcano

-fast cooling period

-forms into small crystals
