∙ 13y agoThe continental crust is mostly made of granite, the rock that most people have as a kitchen counter top. The continental crust is the ground, not the ocean floor, (oceanic crust). I hope you find this answer helpful if you have any other questions (since I don't have an account) write the word help after your question and I'll answer it as soon as I can.

This layer of the crust is made of granite?
continental crust
Which type of crust is primarily made of basalt and is more dense?
Continental is made mostly of granite. Oceanic is made mostly of basalt and gabbro.
The continental crust is composed of?
wht is the continental crust made of?
Where is new crust being created?
In oceanic ridges and continental rift zones.
Where does the oceanic crust begin?
The continental shelf is normally made out of continental crust, the oceanic crust begins at the base of the continental rise. However in most places the oceanic crust near the continental margins is covered by continental sediments (eroded form the continents) carried down onto the Oceanic planes by deep sea canyons running off the continental rises.
