Abstract
The coring of buried Quaternary deposits using a Dormer DrillmiteTM auger permits the extraction of samples for luminescence dating from depths of up to 20 m. The unit is powered hydraulically and features portability as one of its main advantages. While a range of other power drilling methods have been used successfully for sample collection in a number of luminescence dating studies, there is a dearth of literature that describes such drilling methods in detail. The absence of such information belies the importance of sampling methods in luminescence dating. This contribution aims to play a role in addressing that deficit. The basic operational features of the DrillmiteTM are outlined and we share some experiences we have had coring with the unit. Adaptations that can be made to the equipment to suit different circumstances are explored. The advantages and drawbacks of core drilling at depth for luminescence dating are also briefly examined.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
