Which of the following is INCORRECTLY matched with the type of igneous intrusion?

batholith -- Colorado's Front Range


sill -- Shiprock, New Mexico


dike -- Spanish Peaks, Colorado


laccolith -- Black Hills, South Dakota


pluton -- Sierra Nevadas, California|||Dike. A dike cuts across rock discordantly. The other formations "play nice" with the original country rock.
