Multiple, Coeval Silicic Magma Storage Domains Beneath the Laguna Del Maule Volcanic Field Inferred From Gravity Investigations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The rhyolite‐producing Laguna del Maule volcanic field (LdMVF), Chile, has had numerous post‐glacial eruptions that produced large explosions and voluminous lava flows. During the Holocene ∼60 m of surface uplift is recorded by paleo‐shorelines of the fresh‐water Laguna del Maule, with an inflation source near the Barrancas volcanic complex. Rhyolites from the Barrancas complex erupted over ∼14 ka including some of the youngest (1.4 ± 0.6 ka) lava flows in the field. New gravity data collected on the Barrancas complex reveals a residual gravity low (−6 mGal, “Barrancas anomaly”) that is distinct from the pronounced gravity low (−19 mGal; “Lake anomaly”) associated with present‐day ground uplift to the northwest. Three‐dimensional inversion of the Barrancas anomaly indicates the presence of a magma body with a maximum density contrast with the host rock of −250 kg/m 3 centered at a depth of ∼3 km below surface. Nearby Miocene high‐silica granites represent frozen remnants of highly evolved rhyolitic magma. Comparison of the densities measured from samples of these plutons with the geophysical model densities, and integration of thermodynamic modeling of silicic melt evolution, provide constraints on our interpretation. We propose a magma body, containing <30% melt phase and low volatile content, exists beneath Barrancas. The Barrancas and Lake gravity lows represent magma in different physical states, associated with past and present‐day storage beneath LdMVF. The gravity model mirrors geochemical observations which independently indicate that at least two distinct rhyolites were generated and stored as discrete magma bodies within the broader LdMVF.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
