Abstract
The patterns of linkage of chemical bonds in space contain significant energetic information that may be used as the basis of a theoretical approach to the structure and chemical composition of minerals. This approach combines aspects of graph theory, bond-valence theory, and the moments approach to the electronic-energy density-of-states to interpret topological aspects of crystal structures, and allows consideration of many issues of crystal structure, mineral composition, and mineral behavior that are not addressed by established theoretical methods. The chemical composition of a mineral is controlled by the weak interaction between the structural unit and the interstitial complex. The principle of correspondence of Lewis acidity-basicity asserts that stable structures will form when the Lewisbase strength of the structural unit closely matches the Lewis-acid strength of the interstitial complex. This principle allows analysis of the factors that control the chemical compositions and aspects of the structural arrangements of minerals, and provides a mechanism to understand the relations between structure, the speciation of its constituents in aqueous solution, and its mechanism of crystallization. (H2O) groups in the structural unit limit the polymerization of the structural unit in one or more directions, controlling the polymerization of the structural unit. This is a major cause of structural diversity in oxygen-based minerals, and accounts for the systematic distribution in mineral species from the core to the surface of the Earth.

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
