Tectonic escape of a crustal fragment during the closure of the Rheic Ocean: U–Pb detrital zircon data from the Late Palaeozoic Pulo do Lobo and South Portuguese zones, southern Iberia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract: The Pulo do Lobo Zone, which crops out immediately north of the allochthonous South Portuguese Zone in southern Iberia, is classically interpreted as a polydeformed accretionary complex developed along the southern margin of the Gondwanan parautochthon (Ossa–Morena Zone), during the late Palaeozoic closure of the Rheic Ocean. This closure was a major event during the amalgamation of Pangaea. U–Pb laser ablation inductively coupled mass spectrometry dating of detrital zircons from late Palaeozoic Devono-Carboniferous clastic units in the South Portuguese Zone and Pulo do Lobo Zone yield contrasting age populations and attest to the exotic nature of both zones. Detrital zircons from the South Portuguese Zone display populations typical of detritus derived from either Gondwana (Ossa–Morena Zone), or peri-Gondwanan terranes. In contrast, rocks from the Pulo do Lobo Zone contain populations consistent with derivation from Baltica, Laurentia or recycled early Silurian deposits along the Laurentian margin. An example of one such deposit is the Southern Uplands terrane of the British Caledonides. Taken together, these data can be reconciled by a model involving tectonic transport of a crustal fragment that was laterally equivalent to the Southern Uplands terrane between the allochthonous South Portuguese Zone and Gondwana as a result of an early Devonian collision between an Iberian indenter with Laurussia. Supplementary material: U–Pb data tables, concordia diagrams, methods and representative back-scattered electron images are available at http://www.geolsoc.org.uk/SUP18441 .

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.
