  • The mean thickness of oceanic crust and continental crust is around:

    Continental crust is typically 30 km (25 miles) thick, while oceanic crust is much thinner, averaging about 5 km (4 miles) in thickness. The effect of the different densities of lithospheric rock can be seen in the different average elevations of continental and oceanic crust.
