Evaporation Pathways and Solubility of Fe-Ca-Mg-Rich Salts in Acid Sulfate Waters. A Model for Martian Ancient Surface Waters
Abstract
In this work we have characterized a layered deposit formed from the evaporation of stream water from Rio Tinto, Spain, a relevant Mars analog site. The minerals detected in-situ, confirmed later via high resolution Raman spectroscopy.
