A fold is a bend in a rock layer. Some folds are a few centimeters wide and others cover several kilometers. Sometimes the rock folds enough to turn completely over, and these places are called overturn, or recumbent, folds. Some folding rock layers break from the forces within the crust of the earth and these places are called faults. Folds where the rocks have been pushed upward but not turned upside down are called anticlines and the depressions between the anticlines are called synclines.
In geography, a fault is the border between two continental plates. A fold is where sedimentary rock slumps before it becomes hardened.
In stuctural geology, an anticline is a fold that is convex up or to the youngest beds.
The earths crust is a part of the outermost layer.
Silicon is a mixture of the minerals of the earths crust. so.... silicon isn't something from the earths crust. -thanks for your question.

When layers of rock bend downward, the resulting fold is a syncline.

The Earths crust is approximately 650 km deep.

The abundance of neodymium in the earths crust is approx. 40 ppm.
Yes all metals are in the earths crust in ore form.
The sudden vibration in the plates inside the crust causes the earths crust to rise & fall.
Fold mountains.
The earth's crust is not stress
