Explanation: Short description :
Instead, a collision between two continental plates crunches and folds the rock at the boundary, lifting it up and leading to the formation of mountains and mountain ranges.
The best example of two continental plates colliding is the boundary between the Indian subcontinent and the Asian continental plate. The world's highest mountains the Himalayas are the result of the colliding of two continental plates
Long description:
There is something of a misconception among the general public that the world’s surface is split into Oceanic and Continental tectonic plates. It’s not really. It can be hard to grasp this, but “tectonic plates” are not “crustal plates,” but rather they are “lithospheric plates.”
Earth CRUST is either Continental (less dense and typically thick ~35 km) or Oceanic (more dense and typically thin ~5 to 10 km). But the Crust is only the top layer of the LITHOSPHERE, which includes both the Crust and the top layer of the Upper Mantle, which is relatively cool, behaves primarily as a solid and is rigid. The Lithosphere is typically on the order of 100 km thick. The Upper Mantle layer is mostly similar chemically beneath the two types of crust, but there are gradational differences with depth, especially beneath thick Continental crust, but in terms of behavior it tends to act the same.
Given the thicknesses of these layers you can understand how the Upper Mantle portion of the Lithosphere is the primary component of a tectonic plate, and the Crust (either Oceanic or Continental) is more like a skin, or a scab, along for a ride on top of the plate.
So Crust is gradationally connected to, or stuck on, the Lithospheric plate, but Oceanic and Continental Crusts behave differently during plate collisions. Rule #1 is that, essentially, Continental Crust, by virtue of its lighter density, does not subduct. Sure, parts of Continental Crust (big pieces even) can get broken off and dragged down with a subducting plate, but it melts quickly and rises back up as magma. The vast majority of the Continental Crust in a convergent plate collision stays on top, buoyed up by its density. In contrast Oceanic Crust tends to go down on the subducting plate. Sometimes pieces get scrapped off and get stuck onto Continental Crust, but the vast majority of it gets subducted and melted.
So when two Continental Lithospheric plates collide, the two Continental crusts smash together to form mountains. If the plate motion stops (i.e. no subduction) due to crustal shortening/thickening you get mostly nonvolcanic mountains similar to the Himalayas. If convergent motion continues (and one plate gets subducted under another) partial melting of the subducted plate will result in volcanic mountains similar to the Andes. If motion translates from convergent to strike-slip you won’t get mountains or crustal thickening, but rather one plate sliding past another plate laterally like what is happening in California.
Here’s what won’t happen in a plate collision:
1) One plate won’t slide under another and essentially double the thickness of the Lithosphere. One plate eventually descends and gets subducted.
2) Plates don’t get bent upwards and eventually flop over upside down onto the land.
They DO collide and fault and fold as they compress, building mountains if there is light-density Continental Crust on top of the plates.
If the Continental material runs out in the collision and that plate transitions to Oceanic, it will begin to subduct.
