CORUNDUM-BEARING VEINS IN CHLORITITE FROM THE ETIROL-LEVAZ AUSTROALPINE CONTINENTAL SLICE (VALTOURNENCHE, AOSTA, ITALY)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The high-pressure (HP) continental Etirol-Levaz slice (ELS) is exposed on the right side of the Valtournenche (Aosta) at the contact between the overlying blueschist-facies Combin Zone and the underlying eclogite-facies Zermatt-Saas Zone. The ELS contains a layered metagabbro showing a complex evolution, which includes the pre-Alpine high-temperature (HT) recrystallization of the igneous mineralogies, and the polyphase Alpine metamorphism, initially at high-pressure (HP) quartz eclogite-facies, and greenschist-facies (GS) retrogression.In this paper, an unusual corundum-bearing ultramafic rocks associated with metagabbros are described. The studied sample is a Mg-chloritite with relict green spinel partly replaced by corundum, Mg-beltrandoite-2N3S (a new mineral of the hogbomite supergroup), Mg-chlorite and dolomite. The rock is crossed by mm- to cm-thick veins composed of coarse-grained corundum + Mg-chlorite + dolomite. P-T phase-diagram projections indicate that the corundum-bearing assemblages formed in the presence of a water-rich fluid (X(CO2) ≤ 0.04), during retrograde decompressional evolution. This stage follows the prograde HP-peak of the associated eclogites. The newly inferred prograde-to-retrograde P-T path suggests that the ELS and the underlying Zermatt-Saas Zone shared a common Alpine metamorphic evolution.The detailed study of the relict minerals preserved in the chloritite indicates its pre-Alpine protolith, a green spinel websterite, and its evolution, characterized by a high-T recrystallization of the original igneous asemblages. During the Alpine orogeny, the spinel websterite experienced metasomatic hydration that converted the original igneous rock into a chloritite.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
