The Rootzone of an Ancient Hydrothermal System Exposed in the Troodos Ophiolite, Cyprus
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A well‐exposed, oceanic hydrothermal rootzone in the Troodos ophiolite, Cyprus, is composed of the basal sheeted dikes, the upper 50–100 m of the gabbroic sequence, and a contact aureole, interpreted as a fossil conductive boundary layer. The basal sheeted dikes and upper gabbros were pervasively altered at high temperatures (400°–775°C) and cut by a series of broadly distributed mineralized faults that are oriented parallel to the strike of the sheeted dike complex. Fluid inclusion and mineralogical data for fault breccias show that circulating fluids were 350°–400°C, fairly oxidizing, and relatively H2S rich, with a range in salinity (1.5–7.8 wt % NaCl equivalent). Field and petrological evidence suggest that the rootzone migrated from the basal sheeted dikes into the upper gabbros and back again, perhaps for several cycles. These migrations and P‐T oscillations in the conductive boundary layer were likely caused by fluctuations in thermal conditions imposed by the magmatic system at a spreading center. The hydrothermal rootzone did not migrate to significant depths in the plutonic sequence until the waning stages of magmatism.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
