Defining tectonic boundaries using detrital zircon signatures of Precambrian metasediments from Svalbard’s Southwestern Caledonian Basement Province
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Detrital zircon provenance studies of Precambrian metasedimentary rocks in Wedel Jarlsberg Land and Sørkapp Land, Svalbard’s Southwestern Caledonian Basement Province, were conducted to evaluate local stratigraphic correlations and the role of long-distance strike-slip displacements in assembling the basement of the Arctic Caledonides. The detrital zircon U-Pb age spectra of the late Mesoproterozoic to Neoproterozoic metasediments revealed mainly Mesoproterozoic to Paleoproterozoic age signatures characteristic for a Grenville–Sveconorwegian orogen provenance. These results confirmed a stratigraphic correlation between basement units of southern Sørkapp Land and the Isbjørnhamna Group of Wedel Jarlsberg Land and suggest relocation of the tectonic boundary between the Eimfjellet Complex and the Isbjørnhamna Group above the Eimfjellbreane Formation. Moreover, the results support the Vimsodden Kosibapasset Shear Zone (VKZ) as a major tectonic boundary and highlight the inhomogeneity in the Southwestern Caledonian Basement Province. The detrital zircon age signatures south of the VKZ bear similarities with coeval metasediments of the Northwestern Caledonian Basement Province of Svalbard and other localities in the Greenland and Scandinavian Caledonides. In contrast, the detrital zircon age spectra north of the VKZ are comparable with the high Arctic Neoproterozoic sediments of Baltican affinity. In conjunction with previous studies, the results suggest that the basement units may continue across the traditional boundaries of the Svalbard’s Caledonian basement provinces.

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.
