How do mid-ocean ridges form new crust? Spreading mid-ocean ridges form the longest mountain ranges in the world. New oceanic crust is created at this boundary when basalt magma, formed in the mantle, rises into fractures in the crust and solidifies. Spreading ridges are high elevation because the young oceanic plate at the ridge crest is hot and less dense than the older, colder and more dense plate on the flanks of the ridge. As the plates move away from the boundary, they thicken because unde

Mountain chains like the Andes and Himalayas are impressive, but they've got nothing on the mid-ocean ridge system. Stretching for over 40,000 miles, it's the longest mountain range on Earth, but it's hiding at the bottom of the sea. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is one of the most famous sections, and OceanX has gotten to do some incredible science on it, in the Azores. | OceanX
