What is a rift vally?
Formed as large slabs of rock sink and slide down into gaps in the crust
Why do concrete slabs have space between them?
Those are expansion joints. During the changing seasons with varying temperatures, the slabs expand and contract. The spaces allow the slabs to expand without cracking the concrete.

What area has huge slabs of rock that float on the mantle?
