Possible Ni-rich Mafic-ultramafic Magmatic Sequence in the Columbia Hills: Evidence from the Spirit Rover

Introduction: The Spirit rover landed on geologic units of Hesperian age in Gusev Crater. The Columbia Hills rise above the surrounding plains materials, but orbital images show that the Columbia Hills are older [1, 2]. Spirit has recently descended the southeast slope of the Columbia Hills doing detailed measurements of a series of outcrops. The mineralogical and compositional data on these ro...
