Geochronology of the Mines Gaspé porphyry deposit, Québec, Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Mines Gaspé area hosts multiple Cu–Mo skarn and porphyry orebodies near the town of Murdochville in the northeastern part of the Gaspé Peninsula, Québec. The orebodies occur within overlapping alteration aureoles in calcareous Lower Devonian sedimentary rocks. The strata are intruded by numerous multiphase porphyry sills, dykes, and plugs of Devonian age. The Porphyry Mountain intrusion and a sill in the Copper Mountain pit have been dated at 378.80 ± 0.37 and 377.60 ± 0.45 Ma, respectively, refining the results of previous studies, and demonstrating Porphyry Mountain intrusion emplacement at least 0.38 m.y. before Copper Mountain. Circa 392 Ma inherited zircon grains at Mines Gaspé suggest an early phase of magmatism that produced the extensive skarn alteration aureoles throughout the Gaspé Peninsula at sites such as Mines Gaspé and the nearby McGerrigle Complex, followed by significantly later (>10 m.y.) porphyritic intrusions and associated mineralization that added to existing skarn resources. Epidote at both Mines Gaspé and Sullipek occur as disseminated/granular crystals within the host groundmass and as larger crystals within veinlets or veinlet halos in metasomatised sedimentary rocks. Epidote ages suggest that there are several different propylitic hydrothermal events within the region at Mines Gaspé and Sullipek, which combined with new zircon U–Pb ages implies a prolonged and complex history of propylitic alteration within Gaspésie.

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.
