Abstract
A water table head distribution map of the shallow Benin Formation aquifer in the Effurun-Warri area has been drawn from dug well data and used to define groundwater gradients as well as identify directions of groundwater movement in this densely populated urban setting. Water samples from forty dug wells were also screened for the presence of lead and cadmium and results showed a variation in concentration from not detectable to 0.04mg/l for each metal. Iso-concentration contours for lead in groundwater suggest that enrichment may be from two sources: wastes from the refinery and petrochemical industrial complex on the northwestern edge of the city and secondly from leachates associated with the many unregulated waste dumpsites. Lead appears to be constrained from spreading eastwards from the industrial complex area by the south and westwards trending groundwater gradient. The city wide prevalence of elevated levels of cadmium is also probably due to leachates from unregulated dumpsites as well as the mixing of groundwater as suggested by existing gradients. Potential implications of the findings for public health, local and regional water quality monitoring are discussed.

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
