Oceanic Crust Composition is a geoscientific construct that specifies the mineralogical and chemical makeup of the Earth's oceanic crust, distinguished from other crustal compositions by its origin at mid-ocean ridges, dominance of mafic rocks such as basalt and gabbro, and characteristic stratigraphy resulting from seafloor spreading processes.
