Batholith


Batholith is the Magma that is that the bottom of the Layers from the Volcanoes. It is just basically the magma, or the LAVA! It is a large emplacement of igneous intrusive rock that forms from cooled magma deep in the earth's crust. Batholiths are almost always made mostly of felsic or intermediate rock-types, such as granitequartz monzonite, or diorite.
