Abstract
Jarosites (MFe(3)(SO(4))(2)(OH)(6)) are precipitated in the Zn industry to remove impurities during the extraction process and contain metals such as Pb and Ag. Jarosite wastes are often confined to capped tailings ponds, thereby creating potential for anaerobic reductive dissolution by microbial populations. This study demonstrates the reductive dissolution of synthetic Pb-jarosite (PbFe(6)(SO(4))(4)(OH)(12)) by a subsurface dissimilatory Fe reducing bacterium (Shewanella putrefaciens CN32) using batch experiments under anaerobic circumneutral conditions. Solution chemistry, pH, Eh, and cell viability were monitored over time and illustrated the reduction of released structural Fe(III) from the Pb-jarosite to Fe(II). Inoculated samples containing Pb-jarosite also demonstrated decreased cellular viability coinciding with increased Pb concentrations. SEM images showed progressive nucleation of electron dense nanoparticles on the surface of bacteria, identified by TEM/EDS as intracellular crystalline precipitates enriched in Pb and P. The intracellular precipitation of Pb by S. putrefaciens CN32 observed in this study provides potential new insight into the biogeochemical cycling of Pb in reducing environments.

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
