Tectono-metamorphic evolution of the pre-Athabasca basement within the Wollaston-Mudjatik Transition zone, Saskatchewan
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Paleoproterozoic tectono-metamorphic evolution of the pre-Athabasca basement (similar to 1.7 Ga) within the Wollaston-Mudjatik Transition Zone (WMTZ) (Saskatchewan, Canada) has been characterized using both exposed basement and drill cores from the Wolly-McClean exploration drilling project. The finite ductile strain pattern of the WMTZ results from the superposition of two tectono-metamorphic events M1-D1 and M2-D2. M1-D1 is associated with the development of a gently dipping foliation striking N90 degrees-N100 degrees and a southward decrease in peak pressures from up to 10 kbar (1 kbar = 100 MPa) in the Cochrane River area down to 6 kbar in the Wolly-McClean exploration drilling project. The M2-D2 event is responsible for the main northeasterly trend of the WMTZ that developed in a sinistral transpressional tectonic regime during the final oblique collision of the Trans-Hudson Orogeny. Thermobarometric estimations on M2-D2 assemblages show that the studied area was reequilibrated at about 4-5 kbar and 750-825 degrees C. The basement has thus been affected by a differential isothermal decompression event between D1 and D2 that allowed the juxtaposition of the deepest northeastern domains and the Wolly-McClean exploration drilling project, at the same structural level. These results suggest that the basement exposed to the northeast of the Athabasca Basin is not an analog of the basement located beneath the eastern Athabasca Basin where uranium-enriched granitic pegmatites and granites are known. We also suggest that uranium-enriched melts produced during the early M1-D1 stage of partial melting in the deep crust were transferred to the midcrust, owing to D2 shear zones, where they have differentiated to produce uranium-bearing pegmatites.

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.
