Hello Richard. In 2009, the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter device found in the Nili Fossae (and in the other two areas) deposits of the mineral serpentine, ie a large number of rocks exposed Serpentinization, water changes as you rightly pointed out. Many breeds of Mars have their analogues in the world: for example chassagnite it dunite. I wanted to know if we have the analogues of possible serpentinite, how can they look (need photos in the first place in the context of stone). On the Internet a lot of pictures of serpentinite, they are all different, some mineral pattern on the thin section might fit the Martian I still find it difficult to answer. All the same, thank you for your reply.
Hello Alek! If serpentine, then aqueous alteration is definitely. Richard Montgomery ----- Original Message ----- From: "Aleksandr" <[email protected]> To: "meteorite-list" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, July 26, 2013 7:15 PM Subject: [meteorite-list] It may look serpentinite from Mars?
Hello List! I apologize for the bad English. I've been studying (not professional) rocks of Mars. In addition to the five types of rocks from Mars that fell onto Earth as meteorites, scientists have discovered deposits of the mineral
serpentine.
If you enter the name "serpentinite" in the search Google images is a lot of pictures, this breed is very diverse. But how could look serpentinite, if he fell to
us
as a meteorite? It has long been engaged in the search of meteorites and
would
not want to walk past if a meteorite is possible. If anyone has suggestions about what kind would have this breed, please send us the links, I would be
very
grateful! (I still like this picture here - http://savepic.org/4222351.jpg) --- Yours faithfully.
