Petrography, Mineralogy, and Origin of the Syenite Pegmatitic Segregation Veins From La Peña Alkaline Complex, Mendoza, Argentina
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The syenite pegmatitic segregation veins (SPSV) of the Early Miocene La Pẽna alkaline complex (LPC), Mendoza, Argentina, are emplaced in a malignite body. They occur as veins, parallel layers, and small elliptical bodies 1 to 6 cm wide and 0.2 to 1 m in length. The veins with a pegmatitic to micropegmatitic texture have a thin dark border composed of andradite, potassic-hastingsite, and dark micas and a thicker internal zone of poikilitic Ba-Sr-poor K-feldspar (Or90.3Ab8.9An0.8), nepheline (Ne74.9Ks19.4Qz5.7 to Ne78.7Ks20.0Qz1.3), potassic-hastingsite, dark mica, andradite, scarce clinopyroxene (diopside- hedenbergite), and locally zoned microphenocrysts of Ba-Sr-rich K-feldspar (Or75.6Ab21.7An2.7). Accessory fluorapatite, titanite, interstitial sodalite, and magnetite and secondary abundant Na- And K-rich zeolites, calcite, chlorite-group minerals, and possibly cancrinite have been identified. The textural and mineralogical characteristics of the SPSV show genetic links with the host malignite that belongs to the potassic alkaline series. The SPSV were formed from a residual syenitic melt (malignite) extracted from a parental tephritic magma. In the residual malignite, the concentration of primary crystals (apatite, clinopyroxene, Ba-Sr-rich K-feldspar, and nepheline) formed a crystal network (mush) with the open spaces occupied by small amounts of residual melt enriched in Al, Na, K, and volatiles and depleted in Ba and Sr. Deformation (by shear movements plus magmatic pressures) produced microfractures and fractures which were occupied by residual interstitial melt. In situ crystallization within these fractures resulted in the formation of the SPSV.

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.
