Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The Junggar Basin is located on the southwestern margin of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB). Whether the Late Permian‐Early Triassic tectonic inversion there recorded the final closure of the North Tianshan Ocean or post‐accretionary intracontinental deformation remains controversial. Linking the structural style and provenance analysis of the western and northern margins of the Junggar Basin can provide a better understanding of this tectonic event and its geodynamic mechanisms. Seismic reflection profiles show that Early Permian syn‐rift half‐grabens were followed by the Middle Permian thermal sag, which is characterized by regional onlap and the migration of the depocentre to the centre of the basin. Together with the published isopach and palaeogeography maps in the western margin of the Junggar Basin, the seismic profiles demonstrate that the reactivation of the Ke‐Bai and Wu‐Xia dextral transpressive fault zones between the West Junggar terrane and the Mahu sag controlled the tilting and deformation of pre‐Permian strata and the distribution of Late Permian‐Early Triassic fan deltas. The reported igneous and sedimentological evidence indicates that the southern margin of the Junggar Basin was a rift basin controlled by transtensional strike‐slip faults in the Early Permian, and also was followed by a Middle Permian thermal sag. Quantitative provenance analysis using detrital zircon geochronology and the DZmix program shows that the West Junggar terrane and Tianshan orogenic belts experienced varied uplift, indicative of a transition from the Middle Permian thermal sag peneplanation to the Late Permian‐Early Triassic tectonic inversion involving reactivation of Early Permian normal faults. This intracontinental deformation event in the Junggar Basin was taken up by block counterclockwise rotation during the final amalgamation of the Pangea, which may be the long‐range effect of the final closure of Paleo‐Asia Ocean in the eastern part of the CAOB.

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.
