Abstract
New geologic data from the Central Gneiss Complex along Douglas Channel help delineate the burial and exhumation of the Late Cretaceous to Eocene Coast Mountains magmatic arc. Arc plutonism was on going between ∼90 and 60 Ma, replaced by formation of dikes to 52 Ma. Supracrustal rocks were buried to midcrustal levels by 90 Ma, and garnet and kyanite grew from ∼90 through 70 Ma. Subsequent exhumation was nearly isothermal and took place in two stages. The first occurred from ∼70 to 59 Ma as the arc contracted obliquely and sillimanite replaced kyanite. Exhumation was slow (∼0.5 mm/yr), probably accomplished by erosion aided by coaxial crustal thinning. Exhumation rates about doubled in the second stage of exhumation, after 59 Ma and before ∼52 Ma. Penetrative deformation ended prior to intrusion of the Quottoon pluton at 59 Ma and ∼6.5 kbar. Production of cordierite rims on garnet at 4.5 kbar and ∼700°C signaled the end of near‐isothermal decompression prior to 52 Ma. Rapid cooling (100°C/10 6 years) of the Central Gneiss Complex followed cordierite growth; temperatures dropped to ∼250° by ∼48 Ma. The increase in exhumation rate and the subsequent rapid cooling are attributed to excision of >6 km of crust on a detachment system on the northeastern side of the Central Gneiss Complex. Comparison to other parts of the Coast Mountains arc, the Sierra Nevada, and Fiordland, New Zealand, shows that the amount and tempo of exhumation vary greatly within and between arcs, suggesting that the processes accommodating exhumation vary significantly.

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 it
