Mössbauer and Electron Microprobe Studies of Density Separates of Martian Nakhlite Mil03346: Implications for Interpretation of Mössbauer Spectra Acquired by the Mars Exploration Rovers
Introduction: Martian meteorite MIL03346 is described as an augite-rich cumulate rock with ~80%, ~3%, and ~21% modal phase proportions of augite (CPX), olivine and glassy mesostasis, respectively, and is classified as a nakhlite [1]. The Mossbauer spectrum for whole rock (WR) MIL 03346 is unusual for Martian meteorites in that it has a distinct magnetite subspectrum (~7% subspectral area) [2]. ...

Introduction: Knowledge of martian igneous and mantle composition is crucial for understanding mantle evolution including early differentiation, mantle convection and the chemical alteration of the surface. Primitive magmas provide critical information on their mantle source regions but most Martian meteorites crystallized from fractionated melts [1]. The new martian meteorite NWA 5789, discove...
متن کاملEvidence for a Second Generation of Magnesite in Martian Meteorite Allan
Introduction: Single-stage formation mechanisms for carbonate and other secondary minerals in ALH84001 are rapidly being revised to include multiple stages of carbonate growth and later thermal and mechanical events including alteration [1-9]. In an effort to confirm some of these more complex histories we have been studying carbonate-bearing regions within this meteorite. Magnesitic carbonates...

Abstract 1-Introduction Bazman volcano is located on Chgay - Makran magmatic arc. This magmatic arc with east-west trend is 500 km long and 150 km wide and extends from southeastern Iran to southwestern Pakistan. Early evolution of the Makran zone from the upper Oligocene to the upper Miocene is characterized by turbidite sediments deposited on the oceanic crust. There are several quaternary...
متن کاملComplex Thermal History of Nakhla and Y000593
Introduction: In order to unravel the thermal history of the Martian meteorites Nakhla and Y000593 we applied several geo-thermometers including single and two pyroxene thermometry, the Fe, Ti-thermometer / oxybarometer and TEM microstructures. Application of the Fe,Ti-thermometer/oxyba-rometer: The presence of Fe,Ti-oxide phases enable the application of the Fe,Ti-thermometer /oxybaro-meter [1...
