PGE-BEARING MINERALS IN SILURIAN SEDEX DEPOSITS IN THE POBLET AREA, SOUTHWESTERN CATALONIA, SPAIN
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Lower Llandoverian metasedimentary series of the Prades Mountains, in southwestern Catalonia, Spain, consists of interbedded massive feldspar beds, composed of almost pure anorthite, with chert, phosphate beds, sulfide-rich black shale, massive sulfides and minor calc-silicate beds. The sulfides mainly consist of pyrrhotite with minor chalcopyrite. The metasedimentary rocks are anomalously V- and Cr-rich and contain disseminated minerals bearing precious metals, e.g. , sperrylite and palladian lollingite. On the basis of the geological setting of ore formation and the textural relationships among the minerals, a sedex model is proposed for the primary origin of these deposits and occurrences. However, textural patterns and mineral compositions were modified during several episodes. Firstly, Hercynian deformation and associated regional low-grade metamorphism produced cleavage and small-scale veining in the primary associations. Later, contact metamorphism related to Late Hercynian intrusions annealed the mineral associations. A sulfidation stage of mineralization caused replacement of Pd-bearing lollingite by arsenopyrite. During this process, the arsenopyrite structure was unable to accommodate such high Pd contents and, consequently, Pd was precipitated as PdAs 2 and scarce small grains of native Pd, disseminated along the lollingite – arsenopyrite contact, in association with argentian gold, and tellurides and selenides of Au, Ag, Bi and Pb.

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.
