In the case of a credit card/cash advance, there's also the convenience of not having to go through a new loan application process and having the funds almost immediately. As noted above in the government home improvement loans section, the Title 1 program also allows unsecured loans of $7,500 or less.
Intrusive Igneous Rocks. Intrusive, or plutonic, igneous rocks form when magma cools slowly below the Earth's surface. Most intrusive rocks have large, well-formed crystals. Examples include granite, gabbro, diorite and dunite. Mineral Photos courtesy of R.Weller/Cochise College.
Intrusive igneous rocks are formed from magma that cools and solidifies within the crust of a planet, surrounded by pre-existing rock (called country rock); the magma cools slowly and, as a result, these rocks are coarse-grained.
