A sedimentation study of the Slocan series, Sandon area, British Columbia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A study of the Slocan Series of South Eastern British Columbia along the three related paths of Lithology, Biology and Tectonics is made. The Lithotopes studied are mainly microscopic, though some megascopic characters are used to determine bottom conditions. The microscopic work was done on slides made from specimens taken at random on a cross-section of these sediments from near Zincton B.C. along the valleys of Seaton and Carpenter Creeks, to New Denver, B.C. The specimens indicated an increase of grain size and feldspar content from the bottom of the section towards the top. This is correlated with an increase in sediment supply and rate of subsidence. The fossils found by Cairnes show that these sediments were laid down in marine waters. A study of lithologic assemblages and types leads to some hypotheses. These, taken with a study of the Windermere geosynclinal assemblage, and theoretical considerations based on the orogenic cycle, allow a history of the area to be made. This history indicates that the Slocan Series, while the result of a separate downwarp of the crust, is probably part of the complex Purcell-Windermere geosynclinal sequence.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
