What is the difference between a crevice and a crevasse?
A crevice is a small fissure or cleft, and mining a crevice means a fissure in which ore or metal is found.
A crevasse is a fissure, but is usually wide and/or deep and found in ice or a glacier. In the USA, this can also mean a breach in a river bank or levee.
