Possible primary sources of diamond in the North African diamondiferous province
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The Eglab shield is the easternmost part of the Reguibat rise, which belongs to the West African craton (WAC). It corresponds to the amalgamation of the Yetti and Eglab Palaeoproterozoic domains. These domains are separated by a mega-shear zone called the ‘Yetti–Eglab Junction’ where fieldwork has led to the discovery of kimberlite indicator minerals but no diamond. In the southwestern part of this zone, an outcrop of Archaean basement and a komatiitic–picritic dyke had been recognized. Within the Eglab shield, deep-seated lithospheric faults control emplacement of alkaline complexes, and of small circular structures made up of mafic, ultramafic and silica-undersaturated rocks. These structural zones are characterized by widespread development of dyke swarms and repeated reactivations of earlier Eburnean trends from the Neoproterozoic to Mesozoic. Accordingly, they are sites of high magmatic permeability and crustal weakness. In this study, we summarize all known earlier and newly obtained structural, geophysical, geological and geochemical data on this area. They indicate that the ‘Yetti–Eglab Junction’ has good possibilities for the finding of kimberlite or/and other diamondiferous rocks. The features of the Eglab shield provide a possible explanation for the enigmatic sources of the diamond-bearing Reggane placer deposit located at the boundary of the WAC.

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.
