Abstract
Ground penetrating radar (GPR) has proven to be a rapid and inexpensive geophysical tool for the exploration of near surface gem‐bearing pegmatites. Reasonable images and reliable interpretations have made this technique acceptable to miners for assisting in mine development. We have clearly delineated dipping and intersecting structures, crystal bearing cavities, and existing mine workings. The effects of moisture content of the scanned overburden have also been established as reducing signal transmission. Therefore, we suggest that the overburden be removed prior to scanning. Our testing has shown a rate of transmission of the GPR signal in pegmatite to be between 0.095 and 0.105 m/ns.

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
