Petrography, chemical composition, and age constraints of mafic intrusions from the Mesoproterozoic Soisson Intrusive Suite in the southeastern Churchill Province (Canada)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Several kilometre-scale gabbroic intrusions with well-preserved cumulate textures occur over a ∼180 km northwest–southeast strike length area in the Core Zone, within the southeastern Churchill Province. These intrusions (1312–1311 Ma) are devoid of structural and metamorphic overprint and are mainly composed of olivine gabbro. Their overlapping petrographic, geochemical, and mineralogical characteristics suggest that all of these gabbroic intrusions are co-genetic and form the Soisson Intrusive Suite. The Soisson intrusions formed from basaltic parental magmas with low MgO (∼6–7 wt.%) and high Fe–Ti contents. Overall, they are similarly fractionated at the regional scale and incorporated various amounts of upper crustal material, as indicated by field (e.g., xenoliths, hybrid zones) and geochemical (e.g., high HILE/MILE, depletion in Nb±Ta) evidences. The Soisson Intrusive Suite has petrological, geochemical, and mineral chemistry similarities with the troctolite and olivine gabbro cumulates of the Voisey’s Bay and Mushuau intrusions from the ca. 1363 to 1289 Ma Nain Plutonic Suite (NPS), and appears to be contemporaneous with its younger gabbroic–troctolitic intrusion phase, suggesting that the Soisson Intrusive Suite and the gabbroic–troctolitic intrusions of the NPS were formed by similar petrological processes. Furthermore, like many gabbroic–troctolitic intrusions of the NPS (e.g., Voisey’s Bay intrusion), the Soisson intrusions contain Ni–Cu–Co magmatic sulfide mineralization. Among the Soisson intrusions, the Papavoine intrusion located in the southern part of this intrusive suite may be the most prospective intrusion as a Ni, Cu, and Co exploration target. Overall, the Soisson Intrusive Suite’s similarity with the NPS raises questions about their potential genetic link and magmatic connectivity at depth.

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.
