• Two plates build up
pressure and friction
then slide past each
other causing a fault.
• The shearing often
causes earthquakes, but
neither plate is destroyed
in the sideways motion.
• Example: Pacific and
North American Plates =
California’s San Andreas
Fault.
Transform Boundary
• New crust forms at rift
valleys, where two plates
diverge, or pull away from
each other.
• This type of boundary is
“constructive”, since it
builds new materials onto
the edges of the plates.
• Example: African and
Indo-Australian plates =
The Great African Rift
Valley.
Divergent Boundary
Continental/ Continental
• New ocean crust forms at rift valleys, where two plates
diverge, and builds and forms huge underwater
mountains, called mid-ocean ridges.
• For the last 250 million years, the Atlantic ocean has
been growing wider as new crust is added to Sea-floor
spreading.
• Example: Eurasian and North American Plates= the
Mid-Atlantic Ocean Ridge and Iceland.
Divergent Boundary
Oceanic/ Oceanic
• When two plates carrying
continents run into each other,
the collision deforms the
leading edge of both plates,
creating folded mountains.
• When two continents meet
head on, neither is subducted
because the continental rocks
are relatively the same density.
• Example: Indo-Australian and
Eurasian plates = Himalayan
Mountains
Convergent Boundary
continental/ continental
• When two plates collide,
destruction of the more
dense plate will create a
subduction zone, a trench
and a volcanic mountain.
• The more dense oceanic
plate will bend and slide
below the continental plate.
• Example: Nazca and South
American Plate the Andes
Mountains
Convergent Boundary
oceanic/ continental
• When two oceanic plates
collide, destruction of the
older plate will create a
subduction zone.
• Trenches on the ocean floor
are the site where magma
rises up to form volcano
islands.
• Example: Philippine and
Pacific Plate= the island arc
of Japan
