Normal faults initiate over a large area in fine-grained subaqueous strata soon after deposition. As they continue to grow laterally and vertically, their fault traces intersect to form polygons in plan view. These polygons are difficult to image without three-dimensional (3-D) seismic data. The faulting is initiated during sediment dewatering and mud particle consolidation that can be independent of external stresses. In the past 20 years, hundreds of basins worldwide have been interpreted to contain polygonal faults.This paper presents a PFS interpretation for fine-grained sediments deposited in the Late Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway of the Great Plains of North America. The faulted strata have been observed as a PFS at depths ranging from ∼2750 m subsurface to outcrop. Seismic dataset interpretations and borehole analyses corroborate previously published outcrop analyses and seismic interpretations. The larger observed faults are mesoscale in size, with throws up to 80 m, and strike lengths up to ∼1.5 km. Potentially encompassing over 2,000,000 km2, observational averages imply 107 or more mesoscale-size faults, with an order of magnitude greater number of smaller faults. At shallow depth and outcrop, the PFS model of extensive normal faulting could help to explain Late Cretaceous shale faulting attributed to other causes such as deeper sediment dissolution or glacial processes. In the subsurface, faulting and fracturing consistent with a PFS model can help to explain fault geometries observed in well control and 3-D seismic data.

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.
