Difference between Cupola (geology) and Intrusive rock

Cupola (geology) vs. Intrusive rock

In geology, a cupola is an upward protrusion from the roof of a large igneous intrusion, such as a batholith. Intrusive rock (also called plutonic rock) is formed when magma crystallizes and solidifies underground to form intrusions, for example plutons, batholiths, dikes, sills, laccoliths, and volcanic necks.

Similarities between Cupola (geology) and Intrusive rock

Cupola (geology) and Intrusive rock have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Batholith, Magma, Stock (geology).

Batholith

A batholith (from Greek bathos, depth + lithos, rock) is a large mass of intrusive igneous rock (also called plutonic rock), larger than in area, that forms from cooled magma deep in the Earth's crust.
