Abstract
Abstract This article reports on the first application of muon tomography (a novel method for imaging density contrasts underground using cosmic rays) for imaging dense uranium deposits within the Athabasca Basin in Canada. We present a qualitative assessment of the radiographic imaging and 3‐D density inversion of a uranium deposit using muon tomography. The muon tomography survey summarized in this article was performed at the McArthur River mine. We demonstrate the validity of muon tomographic imaging with data acquired at a depth of about 600 m underground. The statistical significance of the uranium deposit signature in the muon data was larger than 5 standard deviations, and the corresponding 3‐D density inversion compared well with drill assay data from the deposit.

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
