Ok, here is the answer and an explaination hidden in white.
Just highlight to read it.
I am an Iceberg

I weigh less than what I am made of, (ice weighs less than water)
I live in white, in green I die. White being cold areas, green being warm areas or the ocean
Call my name if you should see me, Much like "Land Ho" sailors would cry simply "Iceberg" if they saw one
I'm much more than meets the eye. IIRC only 20% of Icebergs are visible/above water.

My relatives carve mountians Most (if not all) icebergs are chunks of glaciers which have broken off and fallen into the sea. Glaciers carve mountians and make fjords.
But I can lay 'the mightiest' low The mightiest in this case being the Titanic
While those around me are quite salty Sea water
I'm as pure as driven snow. This is what icebergs are made of cheifly, compacted snow which becomes ice.
