Sill Emplacement

Sill Emplacement is a magmatic intrusion process in which magma is laterally injected along bedding planes or structural discontinuities within the crust, forming a subhorizontal, tabular igneous body that distinguishes itself from other magma transport mechanisms by its predominantly horizontal propagation and strata-concordant geometry.
