Just like sedimentary rocks, metamorphic rocks can be forced to the Earth's surface too.All this movement can cause rocks that were once underground to be brought up to the Earth's surface. This process is called uplift.

Answer:

If the intrusive igneous rock is uplifted or the material around it erodes and is carried off, the igneous rock can end up on the surface of the Earth.
