∙ 8y agoWhen melted rock cools and hardens in or under the Earth's surface, it forms igneous rock. This process can happen above ground, forming volcanic rocks, or below ground, forming intrusive rocks.
Igneous rock forms when melted rock from inside the Earth cools and hardens. This process can happen either beneath the Earth's surface, forming intrusive igneous rock, or at the surface, forming extrusive igneous rock. Examples include granite, basalt, and obsidian.

i think the answer your looking for is igneous rock.....that is the type of rock you get after megma cools.....
Igneous rocks are produced when melted rock or magma from inside the Earth cools and hardens on or below the Earth's surface. These rocks can be categorized as intrusive or extrusive, depending on where the cooling and hardening process occurs.
Igneous rock forms when magma cools and hardens. This type of rock can be classified as intrusive (plutonic) if it cools below the Earth's surface (slow cooling) or extrusive (volcanic) if it cools quickly on the Earth's surface. Examples of igneous rocks include granite, basalt, and obsidian.
Igneous rocks are formed when melted rock (magma or lava) from inside the Earth cools and hardens on or under the Earth's surface. This process involves the solidification of molten material, leading to the formation of rocks like granite, basalt, and obsidian.

They are called intrusive igneous rocks.

Igneous
When melted rock cools or hardens on or under Earth's surface, it forms igneous rock.
It hardens because it cools.
When molten material from beneath Earth's surface cools and hardens, it forms igneous rocks. Igneous rocks can be either intrusive (formed underground) or extrusive (formed on the surface), depending on where the cooling and hardening process occurs.
Intrusive igneous rocks form from magma that cools slowly below the Earth's surface, allowing large mineral crystals to develop. Examples include granite and diorite.
It forms an igneous rock. If it is within the Earth, then it is an intrusive igneous rock (e.g. granite) and if it is erupted onto Earth's surface then it is an extrusive igneous rock (e.g. basalt).
When magma cools at the surface of the Earth, it cools very quickly and hardens on the Earths crust. However, it continues flowing underneath, forming interesting textures.
