- Article title
- Abitibi Greenstone Belt
- Article Evaluation
- The article's content is relevant to the topic, as the content consists of geographical extent of the belt, and consists of wiki-links that are related to the topic, such as; Abitibi gold belt, List of greenstone belts, Volcanism of Canada, Volcanism of Eastern Canada. The article has a neutral tone. There are no claims that appear heavily biased towards a particular position. Each claim is backed up by a citation. The citations are reliable as they are from university articles, and academic presses. Examples of these citations in the article are from: Society of Economic Geologists, and Goethe University. Additionally, the article is very short and lacks detail for such a broad topic, which suggests that the article can be improved.

- Article title
- Pegmatite
- Article Evaluation
- The article's content is relevant to the topic, as the content consists of petrology, mineralogy, geochemistry, economic importance, nomenclature, and occurrence associated with pegmatites. The article has a neutral tone. There are no claims that appear heavily biased towards a particular position. Each claim is backed up by a citation. The citations are reliable as they are from reliable secondary sources, such as books, academic presses, and research articles. Examples of these citations in the article are from: American Mineralogist, Mineralogical Society of North America, Elements, and National Park Service. Plenty of detail within the article. Difficult to find additional relevant criteria.

Also explains pegmatite zonation, and composition of pegmatite-forming melts.
- Article title
- Supergene (geology)
- Article Evaluation
- The article's content is relevant to the topic, as the content consists of the zones associated with supergene processes which occur relatively near the surface, and mineral alterations. The article has a neutral tone. There are no claims that appear heavily biased towards a particular position. Each claim is backed up by a citation. The citations are reliable as they are from reliable secondary sources consisting of books, and encyclopedias. Examples of these citations in the article are from: Manual of Mineralogy (1993), The Geology of Ore Deposits (1986), The Encyclopedia of Gemstones and Minerals, Field Guide to North American Rocks and Minerals, and The Audubon Society. The article is short and provides a good opportunity to add detailed information on supergene processes.

- Article title
- Primary Mineral
- Article Evaluation
- The article's content is relevant to the topic, as the content consists of elemental/mineralogical composition of primary rocks, origin of primary ores, soil science definition of primary minerals, and brief facts on ore deposit geology associated with hypogene processes. The citations are reliable as they are from reliable secondary sources consisting of reputable journals, books, university reports. Examples of these citations in the article are from: McGraw-Hill Book Co., Engineering and Mining Journal, Rocks and Minerals (journal), and the Dictionary of Earth Sciences. The article is very short and concise, indicating is a stub. The article lacks a content list, headings, subheadings, and it is unclear when the lead ends. Additionally, the article does not provide any figures, which can easily be added. Little references were used for the article. Furthermore, the latter statements indicate the article has plenty of room for improvement and is a good choice for a topic. The history of the article, shows that recent activity occurred in January 2020, further indicating the article is of interest to other Wikipedia-users.

- Article title
- Kimberlite
- Article Evaluation
- The article's content is relevant to the topic, as the content consists of morphology/volcanology, petrology, geochemistry, economic importance, and related rock types. The citations are reliable as they are from reliable secondary sources consisting of academic dissertations, academic presses, peer reviewed journals, books, and international newspapers. Examples of these citations in the articles are from: New York Times, Geological Society of South Africa, London Geologic Society, New York State Geological Association, Springer US, Journal of Geochemical Exploration, the Pennsylvania Geologic Survey, and Nature.
