Journal ArticleDOI
The mineral diversity of Jezero crater: Evidence for possible lacustrine carbonates on Mars
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed investigation of the mineralogical and morphological properties of geological units within Jezero crater was conducted to better constrain the origin of carbonates in the basin and their timing relative to fluvio-lacustrine activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
A search for minerals associated with serpentinization across Mars using CRISM spectral data
TL;DR: This article performed a comprehensive analysis of the Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars (CRISM) spectral dataset using factor analysis and target transformation methods to efficiently parse through the large quantity of data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Orbital Identification of Hydrated Silica in Jezero Crater, Mars
Journal ArticleDOI
Bulk mineralogy of the NE Syrtis and Jezero crater regions of Mars derived through thermal infrared spectral analyses

TL;DR: In this article, the area to the northwest of the Isidis impact basin (hereby referred to as “NW Isidis”) using thermal infrared emission datasets to characterize and quantify bulk surface mineralogy throughout this region was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interpretation of reflectance spectra of clay mineral-silica mixtures: implications for martian clay mineralogy at mawrth vallis
Nancy K. McKeown,Janice L. Bishop,Javier Cuadros,Stephen Hillier,E. S. Amador,H. D. Makarewicz,Mario Parente,Eli A. Silver +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the spectral reflectance properties of the following binary mixtures to aid in the interpretation of remotely acquired reflectance spectra of rocks at Mawrth Vallis.
