Explanation:

Shale, limestone and rock salt are not igneous rocks but sedimentary rocks and do not represent intusive igneous rocks.Intrusive rock forms within Earth's crust from the crystallization of magma. Many mountain ranges, such as the Sierra Nevada in California, are formed mostly from large granite (or related rock) intrusions.
