Answer:

A. Volcanic activity

Explanation:

The volcanic activity is the process that creates the new minerals on the planet. In this process, the magma from the mantle rises toward the surface. Some magma solidifies inside the crust, while some on the surface, though then its called lava. Be it inside the crust, or on the surface, it is always a large amount of magma or lava that comes to a certain area, causing the formation of certain minerals, and they are in high concentration. The magma and the lava manage to cover large areas, either pushing aside old rocks, or covering them with  thick layers, thus resulting in monotonous high concentrated certain types of minerals in some areas.

Hello! How do earthquakes occur at the oceanic- oceanic plate divergence :) ? <br><br> Thanks
lys-0071 [83]

Answer: As the plates diverge lava pushes through the mantle, cools and forms a new section of crust.

Explanation:  Plates moving slowly along side each other create friction and intense heat as they slide resulting in volcanic activity if the rock melts. Earthquakes can occur if the plate slips sliding away or towards each other.
