Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Under the terms of the deal, Western Lithium will acquire all the outstanding shares in Lithium Americas in a transaction that values the company at Canadian dollar (C$) 80m ($64m*), but Lithium Americas' CEO, John Kanellistas, told IM that the move was a merger of equals, rather than a buy-out. The spirit of the agreement is one of strategically combining our two companies, he said. We've been talking about this deal since 2012 and decided that the time was right to do it now. Cauchari is ready to be developed today, he told IM. We can start generating revenues in Argentina within two years, whereas Kings Valley is still four years away from going into production.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
