Convergent boundary movement is divided into two types, subduction and collision, depending on the density of the involved plates. Continental lithosphere is of lower density and thus more buoyant than the underlying asthenosphere. Oceanic lithosphere is denser than continental lithosphere, and, when old and cold, may even be denser than asthenosphere.

Convergent boundary movement is divided into two types, subduction and collision, depending on the density of the involved plates. Subduction involves an oceanic plate diving down into the mantle and producing a melt. Collision involves continental crust smashing into other continental crust.
