Abstract
Released in October, the ninth series of the junior miner report, entitled Time for Change, said that the top 100 juniors listed on Canada's Toronto Venture Exchange (TSX-V) raised Canadian dollar (C$) 515m ($395m*) in equity financing in 2015, down 25% from last year, while debt financing fell 27% to C$278m over the same period. The report also encouraged miners to do whatever it takes to find the cash to keep going. It said that many juniors were looking at non-traditional financing, where they diversified capital through loans and pursued a syndicate of backers which could help them accumulate the finances needed to move forward on acquisitions or other investments. PwC noted that some exploration companies were literally buying the cash they needed, by acquiring other companies

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
