Describe how igneous activity can affect the landscape Igneous intrusions form when cooling‚ crystallization and loss of gases cause a once fluid magma to solidify. Most rocks that form intrusions originate as either granitic or basaltic magma. Granitic magmas are low density and small quantities‚ just a few kilometers wide‚ rise slowly through the earth’s upper crust‚ pushing existing country rock aside. However‚ very large granite masses‚ which can be up to 1‚000 times larger‚ are formed when magma
