Geology of the Parliament Buildings 4. Géologie des édifices du Parlement du Québec
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The architectural stones used for the Quebec Parliament Hill Buildings were limestone, sandstone and granite quarried in different regions of Quebec. The main stone cladding the exterior walls of the buildings is the limestone from Saint-Marc-des-Carrieres, and this quarry is still in production, whereas the sandstone and the granite quarries had closed many years ago, despite the remarkable durability of these stones. The interior ornamental stones are mainly marbles imported from France, Belgium, Italy and United States, although some grey and black Missisquoi Marbles were used between 1910 and 1937 for decorating adjoining buildings to the older Legislative Parliament. Several granites from Quebec appear in the courtyard surrounding the Legislative Parliament as flagstones, pedestals, staircases and ramps, parapets and benches in the gardens. Resume La construction des edifices de la Colline parlementaire du Gouvernement du Quebec a ete realisee avec des calcaires, des gres et des granits* provenant de diverses carrieres au Quebec. Le materiau qui a ete le plus utilise est le calcaire de Saint-Marc-des-Carrieres, une pierre de construction qui est encore exploitee de nos jours. Les autres pierres, meme si elles se sont averees generalement des materiaux tres durables, ne sont plus exploitees depuis plusieurs annees. Les pierres mises en oeuvre pour la decoration interieure sont surtout des marbres etrangers provenant notamment de France, de Belgique, d'Italie et des Etats-Unis. On a aussi fait usage, dans des edifices, de marbres gris et noir de Missisquoi provenant des carrieres de Philipsburg au Quebec. Les marbres ont surtout servi a la decoration des edifices connexes a l'Hotel du Parlement, qui furent construits plus tard entre 1910 et 1937. L'amenagement des places et des promenades entourant les edifices du parlement fait une place importante a la pierre et, tout particulierement, aux granits quebecois qui ont ete utilises notamment pour le dallage, les socles ** des monuments, les escaliers, les murs d'enceinte, les jardinieres et les differentes pieces de mobilier urbain.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
