The youngest crust of the earth can be found near the seafloor spread in the centers or mid-ocean ridges.

Explanation:

  • The earths crust is the outermost part of the earth and the earth's crust is generally divided into older, thicker continental crust and younger, denser oceanic crust.
  • Earth consists of three layers which are the crust, the mantle, and the core. The crust is made of solid rocks and minerals. Beneath the crust is the mantle, which is also mostly solid rocks and minerals,with  malleable areas of semi-solid magma. At the center of the Earth is a hot, dense metal core.
  • The crust of the earth in the oceans is younger than the continental crust.
