Abstract
SummaryTo improve mineral exploration success, there is an accepted need to increase the “discovery space” by exploring under cover and to greater depths using 3D geological modelling supported by multiple 3D geophysical inversions. To facilitate this approach, multi-sensor airborne platforms capable of simultaneously measuring electromagnetic, gravity, and magnetic data are now being deployed. The availability of data from such systems poses a significant challenge to the exploration geophysicist: How do you generate a shared earth model that satisfies all data? We address this with a case study from the Reid-Mahaffy test site in Ontario, demonstrating how multiple 3D inversions of MEGATEM time-domain electromagnetic, FALCON gravity gradiometry and TMI data can be analysed by the self-organizing maps (SOM) data mining approach to produce 3D pseudo-lithological models. The results of our analyses are shown to be in agreement with the known geology of the Reid-Mahaffy test site.

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
