Abstract
Abundant fossil spores, pollen and marine algal cysts from individual shale xenoliths and finer clastic matrix in kimberlite samples allow the determination of depositional environments and ages of rock units in the inferred but now eroded cratonic sedimentary cover.Through analysis of depositional environments it is quite clear that the interior seaway extended over the craton in the early Late Cretaceous and again, at least partially, in the late Campanian, but by the Maastrichtian it had withdrawn, leaving a terrestrial landscape into which most Lac de Gras kimberlites erupted.The ages allow correlation of sequences in the Lac De Gras region with those of western Canada.Plant microfossils characteristic of latest Turonian through early Campanian, latest Campanian through early Maastrichtian, and late Paleocene ages have not been confirmed in the Lac de Gras xenoliths suggesting depositional hiatuses occurred within the now eroded sedimentary cover.During some of these times, erosion may have been removed strata leaving behind only enhanced thermal maturity profiles as a signature of their former presence.The synchroneity between the emplacement of the Greenland mantle plume and the concentration of kimberlite eruptions in the late Paleocene and earliest Eocene is discussed.

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 it
