Rock cycle

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

The rock cycle is the cornerstone of Geochemistry. It's an important foundation of how the physical Earth looks and functions the way it does now. It's important to the class were in because the rock cycle tells us a lot about where rocks came from and where and how they'll end up. It's a decent article with some aspects of it. There are some things that are left out that i've noticed.

It does a good job of giving a general overall view of how the rock cycle can function. The author does do a good job of staying unbiased and on direction. The article is very concise which is good. Some things are left out like the 4 types of igneous rocks. That part isn't even covered under the igneous section. It doesn't cover why oceanic crust is actually subducted under continental crust.
