clastic texture
The crystals may display a "Crescumulate texture".
Coalesced magma bodies are referred to as plutonic rocks, they have a porphyritic texture or larger crystals since elements are allotted more time to segregate to their desired energy environments and precipitate minerals.
Extrusive rocks are formed outside of earths surface. Intrusive rocks are formed inside earths surface.
Extrusive igneous rocks.
Igneous rocks do form on the earths surface. A volcano erupts and the lava that comes out cools and hardens forming igneous rocks.

If it finds its way dowm into the earths crust through rock cycle and then is melted and mixes together to form molten magma, it could re-erupt to the earths surface and form an extrusive igneous rock or cool and solidify within the earths crust as an intrusive igneous rock.
