- Some characteristics of intrusive igneous rocks are12:
- They form at depth within the crust from magma that cools slowly.
- They are termed plutonic or abyssal rocks if they form deep, and subvolcanic or hypabyssal rocks if they form near the surface.
- They are usually coarse-grained and phaneritic, meaning the individual crystals are visible.
- They have few indications of flow, since their texture and structure mostly develops in the final stages of crystallization.

Intrusive igneous rocks that form near the surface are termed subvolcanic or hypabyssal rocks and they are usually much finer-grained, often resembling volcanic rock.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igneous_rockIntrusive rocks are characterized by large crystal sizes, and as the individual crystals are visible, the rock is called phaneritic. There are few indications of flow in intrusive rocks, since their texture and structure mostly develops in the final stages of crystallization, when flow has ended.
