From the article,
Coastal geomorphologist Dr Paul Kench said coral reef sediment was responsible for building up the islands.
"All the islands that we're looking at, and the atoll systems, comprise predominantly of the broken up corals, shells and skeletons of organisms on the coral reef, which waves then sweep up and deposit on the island," he said.
But hey, don't let Contextomy and Strawmanning get in the way of a good fallacious OP.
