A structural reappraisal of the BeardmoreGeraldton Belt at the southern boundary of the Wabigoon subprovince, Ontario, and implications for gold mineralization
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The BeardmoreGeraldton Belt occurs along the southern margin of the Archean Wabigoon subprovince, Superior Province, Ontario. The belt consists of shear-bounded interleaved metasedimentary and metavolcanic units. The units were imbricated from 2696 to 2691 Ma during D1 thrusting and accretion of the Wabigoon, Quetico, and Wawa subprovinces. Post-accretion D2 deformation produced regional F2 folds that transposed lithological units parallel to the axial plane S2 cleavage of the folds. During D3 deformation, the folds were overprinted by a regional S3 cleavage oriented anticlockwise of F2 axial planes, and lithological contacts and S2 cleavage were reactivated as planes of shear within dextral regional shear zones that generally conform to the trend of the belt. D3 is a regional dextral transpression event that also affected the Quetico and Wawa subprovinces, south of the BeardmoreGeraldton Belt. Gold mineralization at the Leitch and MacLeod-Cockshutt mines, the two richest past-producing gold mines in the BeardmoreGeraldton Belt, is associated with D3 shear zones and folds, overprinting regional F2 folds. The plunge of the ore zones is parallel to F3 fold axes and to the intersection of D3 shear zones with F2 and F3 folds.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
