    The answer is gabbro.

    Gabbro is a group of rocks that are igneous and phaneritic (coarse-grained). It is formed when magma trapped beneath the surface begins to cool slowly. It consists of pyroxene, feldspar, plagioclase, and, in smaller ratio, olivine. Gabbro's common name is 'black granite'.
