Major nonsequitur.

Why is it non-sequitur? It was presented in the context of the article's claim that if this tissue is relatively young, then it's reasonable to assume that the entire planet is, too.

The article’s claim is a logical extension of fact, but your statement is not. It needn’t be the oldest rock for the assertion to be true.
