Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This essay reflects on the historical and ongoing colonial appropriation of land and resources from Indigenous peoples. Beginning with the 1493 Inter Caetera Papal Bull, which laid the foundation for the Doctrine of Discovery, and continuing through subsequent colonial expansions, the authors trace a narrative of systematic appropriation of Indigenous land and resources by European powers, in connection with the emergence of Canada as a major player in the global mining sector over the past 150 years. The essay highlights how Indigenous peoples have long fought to reclaim their rights, examining repeated legal precedents that have affirmed Indigenous rights and title, and the need to consult and accommodate First Nations in the management of resources on their territories. Indigenous leadership will be essential in shaping the future of the mining industry, calling for a fundamental shift towards environmentally and socially responsible mining practices, rooted in mutual respect and a shared commitment to the stewardship of Earth’s resources for future generations.

Not 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.
