Igneous rock.
Mafic igneous rock. ( due to Ferromagnesian minerals).
Magma forms igneous rock when it cools and hardens. Igneous rocks can be further classified as intrusive (formed below the surface) or extrusive (formed on the surface).
The rock that forms when magma hardens beneath the Earth's surface is called an intrusive igneous rock. Examples include granite and diorite.
When magma cools and hardens, it forms igneous rock. This process can occur both beneath the Earth's surface, resulting in intrusive igneous rocks, and on the Earth's surface, creating extrusive igneous rocks. Examples of igneous rocks include granite, basalt, and obsidian.

Intrusive igneous rock
Igneous rocks are formed underground from a very hot substance called magma. As magma cools and hardens under extreme pressure, it forms igneous rocks.
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.
