Xenolith
Linked via "magmatic ascent"
Formation and Classification
Xenoliths are generally classified based on the host rock's composition and the origin of the included material. The primary mechanism for their incorporation is mechanical dislodgement during magmatic ascent, rather than slow assimilation, which typically leads to more chemically modified xenocrysts.
