The Davis Strait is about 200 to 400 miles wide on its path connecting the Labrador Sea and Baffin Bay .
It's known to have an oddly thick seafloor, and now researchers know why.
The crust is actually a crumb of a continent that didn't fully pull away when Greenland and Canada rifted apart.
The researchers also suspect they've discovered an ancient fault, similar to California 's San Andreas fault.
