We present new U-Pb baddeleyite and apatite dates from two diabase sheets that have previously yielded paleomagnetic data from the Mashonaland igneous province in the Zimbabwe craton. Discordant baddeleyite analyses yield upper intercept dates of 1871.9 ± 2.2 and 1882.7 +1.6/−1.5 Ma. Apatite data from the same samples give less precise but statistically indistinguishable dates, providing direct constraints on the post-magmatic thermal history of the diabases. The new U-Pb dates and other recently published baddeleyite dates from the Mashonaland province are coeval with mafic magmatism in the adjacent Kaapvaal craton (1879–1872 Ma), but paleomagnetic poles from the two intraplate suites differ by 39°, suggesting that the two cratons underwent substantial relative motion after ca. 1.88 Ga. Paleomagnetic reconstructions are consistent with >2000 km of lateral displacement being accommodated in the Limpopo orogenic belt that separates the two cratons.

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.
