Deepest doesn't really make sense, so I'm going to answer assuming you meant thickest.
Oceanic crust or continental crust?
Oceanic crust is thickest at spreading centers and continental crust is deepest at collision zones, the Himalayan/Tibet collision zone to be exact.
The lithosphere is the hard rocky outer shell of the Earth, composed of the crust and uppermost mantle, that extends from the surface to a depth of up to 200 km at its deepest point.
No, humans have never gone beneath the Earth's crust. The deepest humans have ever drilled into the Earth is about 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) deep, which is a tiny fraction of the thickness of the Earth's crust. Going deeper would require advanced technology that does not exist yet.
The deepest explorations by miners typically occur in the Earth's crust, specifically within the lower crust and upper mantle. These depths can reach several kilometers below the surface, with some mines, like the Mponeng gold mine in South Africa, extending over 3.5 kilometers deep. At these depths, miners encounter extreme conditions, including high temperatures and pressures, making the extraction process challenging and complex.
Humans have penetrated the Earth's crust, specifically through drilling boreholes for oil exploration or scientific research. The deepest man-made hole is the Kola Superdeep Borehole in Russia, reaching a depth of about 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) into the Earth's crust.
Petroleum is typically found in reservoirs between 1,000 to 10,000 meters (3,280 to 32,800 feet) below the earth's surface. The depth can vary greatly depending on the geological conditions of the area where it is located.
The inner core is the deepest layer of the Earth, located at the center of the planet beneath the outer core. It is composed mainly of solid iron and nickel and has temperatures reaching up to 5,700°C.

The crust.
The Mariana Trench is the deepest part of the ocean in the world, reaching 10.911 kilometres into the crust from sea level.
The layer that contains the highest mountains and deepest oceans is the Earth's lithosphere. The lithosphere is the outermost layer of the Earth's surface, which includes the Earth's crust and the upper part of the mantle. The highest mountains, such as the Himalayas, are formed by tectonic plate collisions, while the deepest oceans, such as the Mariana Trench, are located in the Earth's crust.
No. The deepest we can go is a few miles into the crust.
The deepest mines and drill holes are typically found in the Earth's crust, specifically in the upper portion known as the lithosphere. These mining operations can extend several kilometers below the surface into the crust.
The Earth's lithosphere, which includes the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle, contains both the highest mountains (on the crust) and the deepest oceans (in the oceanic crust). The lithosphere is broken into tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below.
The deepest mines and drill holes are found in the Earth's crust, which is the outermost layer of the Earth. These operations can extend several kilometers into the crust in order to extract minerals or reach deep oil reservoirs.
He was an inventor and explorer and was the first to visit the deepest part of the ocean and also the deepest location on the surface of the Earth's crust.
The deepest mines and drill holes are found in the Earth's crust, specifically in the lithosphere. This layer extends from the crust to the upper mantle and can reach depths of tens of kilometers where mining and drilling operations take place.
