Petrographic analysis and determination of protoliths and pressure-temperature conditions for the Pocologan metamorphic suite, southern New Brunswick
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Pocologan metamorphic suite is a belt of metamorphosed and deformed sedimentary, volcanic and deformed granitoid rocks in southern New Brunswick, west of the city of Saint John. It occurs in faulted contact with the Kingston terrane to the north and the Brookville terrane to the south. Previously, this belt of rocks was included mainly in the Pocologan Mylonite Zone but many of the rocks in the suite are not mylonite. Mapping and petrographic study of 73 samples showed that the Pocologan metamorphic suite consists of five map units. Northwestern and southeastern belts of mylonite are separated by belts of (from northwest to southeast) metatuffaceous rocks, amphibolite/calc-silicate rocks/marble, schist, and metasiltstone. The protoliths for these rocks are sedimentary, tuffaceous and plutonic rocks of both Kingston and Brookville terrane affinity. Pressure-temperature conditions obtained by the computer programme TWEEQU display a range of metamorphic conditions. The results given by TWEEQU were used in conjunction with petrographic features to establish a metamorphic history of the area. The first metamorphic event (M1) occurred at pressures of 5.85 to 6.5 kb and temperatures of 420 to 545°C. The second metamorphic event (M2) was a decompression event that was also responsible for the formation of mylonite. This event occurred at conditions of 3.4 to 5.4 kb and 465 to 600°C. A subsequent retrograde metamorphic event resulted in chloritization in many samples. The Pocologan metamorphic suite formed during the transpressive juxtaposition of the Kingston and Brookville terranes, probably during the Silurian and Devonian.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
