Dolerite hypabyssal is correct.

A subvolcanic rock, also known as a hypabyssal rock, is an intrusive igneous rock that is emplaced at medium to shallow depths (>2 km) within the crust, and has intermediate grain size and often porphyritic texture between that of volcanic rocks and plutonic rocks.

Granite is plutonic rock.
Dolerite is Hypabyssal rock.
Basalt is volcanic rock.

Examples of hypabyssal rocks include dolerite, microgranite and microdiorite.

Examples of plutonic rocks are granite, gabbro, and granodiorite.

They are subvolcanic rocks formed near the surface where temperatures are relatively low and the cooling of the magma is neither rapid nor slow (Gillespie and Styles, 1999).

Examples of hypabyssal rocks include micro granites, porphyry, microgranodiorites, microdiorites, and dolerites.
