Persistence is valuable because it preserves information.
Prediction becomes possible when preserved information influences future outcomes.
Throughout geological history, inherited structures, persistent boundaries, recurring corridors, and long-lived transitions have repeatedly shaped subsequent events.
This paper evaluates whether geological memory systems can improve prediction by identifying relationships that continue participating through time.
The best predictor may not be the newest observation.
The best predictor may be the observation that has survived the longest series of tests.
