Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Batholiths were emplaced by forceful injection and stoping as magma moved upward. They do not assimilate all country rock, form during volcanic eruptions, or have a pyroclastic texture. They are usually large geological features and are composed of various types of plutonic rocks, not just obsidian and pumice.
