Answer:
Basalt is chemically identical to Gabbro, an extrusive igneous rock. So generally all rocks should be crystalline because they are composed of a crystalline mineralogy. Not all igneous rocks are crystalline. ... Because they have solidified from a molten state, often very slowly, allowing time for large crystals to form.
