This project investigates the origins of aluminous clay minerals on Mars, believed to have formed through acid alteration of silicate rocks. By studying similar clay formations on Earth, it aims to provide insights into Mars' past climate and potential for life.
This project will investigate the origin of aluminous Martian clay minerals (thought to be Hesperian in age) as possibly generated by acid hydrous alteration of silicate rocks.
Clays are abundant on Mars, indicating extensive and continued hydrous activity at an early stage in the planet.
Such fact has implications for the search of evidence for extraterrestrial life and for our knowledge of past Martian climate and conditions.Aluminous clay formations on Mars typically contain kaolinite, montmo…
