The place where two plates move apart, or diverge, is called a divergent boundary (dy vur junt). Most divergent boundaries occur along the mid-ocean ridges where sea-floor spreading occurs. Divergent Boundaries. Divergent boundaries also occur on land. When a divergent boundary develops on land, two of Earthâs plates slide apart. A deep valley called a rift valley forms along the divergent boundary. For example, the Great Rift Valley in East Africa marks a deep crack in the African continent.
