The bases of classification of oceanic and continental crust are sigma and sial respectively.
The sial or continental crust is the felsic composition of its bulk mass.
Whereas, the bulk composition of sigma is mafic.
The lower region of the continental crust is more mafic as compared to the upper part which is felsic in nature.
