Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Ferri-fluoro-katophorite is the second species characterised involving the rootname katophorite in the sodium–calcium subgroup of the amphibole supergroup. The mineral and its name were approved by the International Mineralogical Association Commission on New Minerals, Nomenclature and Classification, IMA2015-096. It was found in the Bear Lake diggings, Bancroft area, Ontario, Canada, where coarse euhedral crystals of amphibole, phlogopite, sanidine solid-solution (now coarsely exsolved to microcline perthite), titanite, augite, zircon and fluorapatite crystallised from a low-viscosity silicocarbonatitic magma of crustal origin. Greenish grey prismatic crystals of ferri-fluoro-katophorite generally protrude from the walls into a body of coarsely crystalline calcite, but they also occur away from the walls, completely enclosed by calcite. The empirical formula derived from electron microprobe analysis and single-crystal structure refinement is: A(Na0.55K0.32)Σ0.87B(Na0.79Ca1.18Mn2+0.03)Σ2.00C(Mg3.29Mn2+0.02Fe2+1.19Fe3+0.31Al0.09Ti4+0.08Li0.02)Σ5.00T(Si7.39Al0.61)Σ8.00O22W[F1.23 (OH)0.77]Σ2.00. Ferri-fluoro-katophorite is biaxial (–), with α = 1.640(2), β = 1.652(2), γ = 1.658(2), 2Vmeas. = 68.9(2)° and 2Vcalc.. = 70.1°. The unit-cell parameters are a = 9.887(3), b = 18.023(9), c = 5.292(2) Å, β = 104.66(3)°, V = 912.3(6) Å3, Z = 2 and space group C2/m. The strongest ten lines in the powder X-ray pattern [d values (in Å) I (hkl)] are: 2.708, 100, (151); 2.388, 74, (131); 3.139, 72, (310); 8.449, 69, (110); 2.540, 65, ( $\bar{2}$ 02); 2.591, 53, (061); 2.739, 47, ( $\bar{3}$ 31); 2.165, 45, (261); 3.279, 44, ( $\bar{2}$ 40); 2.341, 43, ( $\bar{3}$ 51).
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.

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.
