   Concordant Intrusions
   Concordant intrusions conform to the layering or bedding planes of the host rock/). They rarely cross structural boundaries.
   Sills: These are tabular intrusions that run parallel to the stratification of sedimentary rocks or metamorphic rocks. Sills can range from centimetres to several kilometres in thickness. A distinction is often made between lower-level sills (shallower depths) and th…

3. Igneous Intrusion

   Linked via "concordant intrusions"

   Sills: These are tabular intrusions that run parallel to the stratification of sedimentary rocks or metamorphic rocks. Sills can range from centimetres to several kilometres in thickness. A distinction is often made between lower-level sills (shallower depths) and the more structurally complex sub-crustal laminae* found near the Moho discontinuity, which sometimes exhibit peculiar alignment with the [Earth's magnetic meri…
