Eoarchean geology

 * ... that Earth's earliest rocks look a little like Hawaii's rocks, but may have little in common with today's plate tectonic rocks? Source:
 * ALT1:... that Earth's earliest rocks are predominantly volcanic? Source:
 * ALT2:... that Earth's tectonics could have operated very differently in Early Archean times compared to the present-day mechanism?

 * Symbol voting keep.svg This article is part of an educational project and is new enough and long enough. Approving ALT1 and ALT2, which both have suitable inline citations for the hook facts. Not approving ALT0 as I cannot find mention of Hawaii in the article. The article is neutral and I detected no policy issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:52, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Symbol possible vote.svg Based on objections at WT:DYK, I am superseding the tick. Graeme Bartlett, it is up to you to address these, made by an IP who seems to know geology. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:34, 31 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Sadly I don't know geology well enough to edit this. Also, I can't see where the article says the rocks are mostly volcanic. --2600:387:6:80F:0:0:0:76 (talk) 16:45, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
