5.1: Introduction

Igneous rocks are very commonly encountered in nature. Well-known examples are the basalt rocks of Hawaii that formed during volcanic eruptions on the islands. However, igneous rocks have formed throughout Earth's history and, through the process of plate tectonics, are often located at great distances from active volcanoes. ...

Igneous Rocks | Types, Classification, Properties, Formation

Igneous rocks are one of the three main types of rocks found on Earth, the other two being sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. These rocks form from the solidification and cooling of molten material, known as magma, which originates deep within the Earth's crust and occasionally even in the mantle. The term "igneous" comes from the Latin word …

Igneous Rocks

Igneous rocks are "fire-born," meaning that they are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten (melted) rock. The word igneous derives from ignis, the Latin word for "fire." Molten rock material is known as magma until it is erupted onto the surface when it then is termed lava. There are two broad types of igneous rocks ...

Igneous Rocks: Pictures, Descriptions & Identification

Pegmatite. Pegmatite is a type of intrusive igneous rock formed during the last stages of magma crystallization. Its crystals are usually larger than 1 cm in size, and often much larger. The large crystal sizes in pegmatite are a result of that part of the magma body taking so long to cool, giving the crystals plenty of time to grow.

What are igneous rocks? | U.S. Geological Survey

Igneous rocks (from the Latin word for fire) form when hot, molten rock crystallizes and solidifies. The melt originates deep within the Earth near active plate boundaries or hot spots, then rises toward the surface.

Igneous Rocks | Earth Science

Intrusive and Extrusive Igneous Rocks. Igneous rocks are called intrusive when they cool and solidify beneath the surface. Intrusive rocks form plutons and so are also called plutonic. A pluton is an igneous intrusive rock body that has cooled in the crust. When magma cools within the Earth, the cooling proceeds slowly.
