Intrusive rock formed from magma that cools and solidifies within the crust of the planet. In contrast, an "extrusion" consists of extrusive rock; rock formed above the surface of the crust. Large bodies of magma that solidify underground before they reach the surface of the crust are called plutons. Plutonic rocks form 7% of the Earth's current land surface. Coarse-grained intrusive igneous rocks that form at depth within the earth are called "abyssal" while those that form near the surface are called subvolcanic or "hypabyssal". Intrusive structures are often classified according to whether or not they are parallel to the bedding planes
Pressure ridge (lava) Pressure ridge (lava) A pressure ridge or a tumulus (plural: tumuli), and rarely referred to as a schollendome, is sometimes created in an active lava flow. Formation occurs when the outer edges and surfaces of the lava flow begin to harden. If the advancing lava underneath becomes restricted it may push up on the hardened crust, tilting it outward. Inflation also takes place and is a process where the plastic layer of lava underneath expands as it cools and small crystals form. The end result is a raised mound of hardened lava rock, usually a relatively narrow but long ridge.
