The verbose log shows the certificate\nactually served: `subject: C=GB; ST=Wiltshire; O=UK Research and Innovation;\nCN=*.bgs.ac.uk`, issued by Sectigo, valid Jun–Dec 2026 — a real, current, non-expired cert,\njust for the wrong name (`*.bgs.ac.uk`, not `*.onegeology.org`). Plain `http://` to the\nsame host instead 302-redirects BACK to the broken `https://` URL\n(`Location: https://portal.onegeology.org/OnegeologyGlobal/`), so there is no working\nfallback path for a standard TLS-verifying client — OneGeology's own homepage links to a\nportal that cannot be reached without disabling certificate validation.\n\n**Mindat API — no JSON refusal shape surfaces; Cloudflare intercepts first:**\n```\ncurl \"https://api.mindat.org/minerals/\"\ncurl \"https://api.mindat.org/geomaterials/\"\n```\nBoth return HTTP **404** with an **HTML** body (`<title>Not Found</title>`) carrying an\nembedded Cloudflare challenge-platform script tag (`__CF$cv$params`), not Mindat's own\napplication — i.e., Cloudflare's edge is answering before any Mindat application code\n(auth-gated or not) is reached, for both a browser-like User-Agent and a bare `curl` UA.\nA root request with a browser UA instead gets a bare `301` redirect with no body.
