Peridotite is a coarse-grained, dark-colored intrusive igneous rock, which consists of minerals such as pyroxene and olivine. It usually contains olivine as the primary mineral in addition to other mafic minerals, such as amphiboles and pyroxenes. It is very low in silica and high in magnesium.
The two best-known igneous rock types are basalt and granite, which have distinctly different compositions and textures. Basalt is the dark, fine-grained stuff of many lava flows and magma intrusions. Its dark minerals are rich in magnesium (Mg) and iron (Fe), hence basalt is called a mafic rock.So basalt is mafic and either extrusive or intrusive.Granite is the light, coarse-grained rock formed at depth and exposed after deep erosion.he main thing about igneous rocks is that they were once hot enough to melt. The following traits are all related to that. 1  Because their mineral grains grew together tightly as the melt cooled, they are relatively strong rocks. 2  They're made of primary minerals that are mostly black, white or gray.
