Mineralogy of mudstone, bocanne, and klinker deposits, Smoking Hills (Ingniryuat), Northwest Territories, Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Combusting mudstones in the Smoking Hills area, Northwest Territories, were reported by European Arctic explorers in the early part of the 19th century. These sites emit hot sulphuric gases due to auto-combustion of pyrite-rich zones. The acidic gases react with the surrounding mudstones to precipitate brightly coloured mineral deposits. In this study, samples were collected from active burning sites (bocanne), inactive sites (klinker) and unaltered mudstones to characterize their mineralogy. The active sites are comprised of variable amounts of discrete sulphate minerals from seven different mineral groups, whereas the inactive sites are characterized mainly by jarosite, gypsum and quartz. The mudstone mineralogy shows most samples contain variable amounts of quartz, muscovite/illite, heulandite and jarosite and a host of other minerals in minor to trace amounts. Understanding the mineralogy of these sites provides new insights on formation of high-temperature acid minerals.

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.
