They were right there when the crystal was formed, so they know for a FACT it’s that old! No? Then this is just indoctrination with their own “religious” biases.

"A tiny 4.4-billion-year-old crystal has been confirmed as the oldest fragment of Earth's crust".Correction; "A tiny 6000-year-old crystal has been confirmed as the oldest fragment of Earth's crust".
There ya go, fixed it.

"But knowledge that its surface hardened so early raises the tantalising prospect that our world became ready to host life very early in its history."My money's on day 3. Given the record from the only Person I know who was there.
Gen 1:9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. Gen 1:10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. Gen 1:11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. Gen 1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good. Gen 1:13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.

We danced this dance a few years ago with hillarious results.... The overturning of an earlier peer reviewed published article shows our skill in telling what we are looking at.....
"World's Oldest 'Diamonds' Are Actually Polishing Grit Fragments, Researchers Find"
Evidence of Earth's first continents 4.3-billion-year-old "diamonds" are actually just fragments of polishing grit, a new study finds.
In 2007, an international team first reported discovering the tiny gems, which hid in pockets inside zircon crystals from Western Australia's Jack Hills, in the journal Nature. But it turns out that the gems weren't actually diamonds, but polishing paste, smushed into hairs'-width cracks when the zircons were prepared for laboratory tests, according to a study published online in the Feb. 1, 2014, edition of the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters. ...

As back up to this article, those interested should read Velikovsky's “Worlds in Collision”, “Ages in Chaos”, and “Earth in Upheaval”. This dovetails with the findings scientists are now revealing.

"their study suggests strongly a continental crust was present on Earth about 100 million years after the planet formed."I can't believe this is a surprise. A mass of molten material would begin to cool immediately. The surface crust then forms an insulation layer that keeps the heat in and the surface cool. In Hawaii you can walk over lava only a few years old that has cracks in the surface and you can see a red hot interior through the cracks.
A hundred million years is a really long time.

I can’t believe so many folks think the Earth/Universe is only a few thousand years old. I had a relative try to convince me of that once.
Do they NOT believe a star can be a million Light Years away?(such measurements are rather trivial and require no theory) Many are much further away than that!
Lets start doing it with Arithmetic too!
