Appendix 2: Morphological and compositional analysis of placer gold in the South Nahanni River drainage, Northwest Territories
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Placer gold has been reported in small amounts throughout the South Nahanni river drainage; however, the original source of the gold is uncertain. This study focuses on two types of placer gold in the area: (1) locally abundant grains derived from near Selena Creek, and (2) scattered grains recovered from streams throughout the South Nahanni drainage area. A shape analysis of all gold grains was completed and representative grains from each sample population were selected for imaging on the scanning electron microscope, along with analysis for Au-Ag-Cu-Hg values on the electron microprobe. The gold grains are typically >700 fineness and mercury is below detection levels (<0.20%). Approximately half the grains analysed from the Selena Creek area registered near to, or slightly greater than, detection levels of copper (<0.04%), whereas the majority of grains from the isolated showings had copper contents below detection levels. The results are compared with published morphological and compositional data for placer and lode gold in other regions.

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.
