Juventae Chasma contains four light‐toned sulfate‐bearing mounds (denoted here as A–D from west to east) inside the trough, mafic outcrops at the base of the mounds and in the wall …
The region surrounding the Mawrth Vallis outflow channel on Mars hosts thick layered deposits containing diverse phyllosilicate minerals. Here we report detection of the Ca …
High-resolution spectral images reveal many new exposures of hydrated minerals across the Noachian southern highlands of Mars. Several different phyllosilicates are observed …
Phyllosilicate deposits on Mars provide an opportunity to evaluate aqueous activity and the possibility that habitable environments may have existed during the Noachian period there …

Analyses of MRO/CRISM images of the greater Mawrth Vallis region of Mars affirm the presence of two primary phyllosilicate assemblages throughout a region∼ 1000× 1000 km …
Mawrth Vallis contains one of the largest exposures of phyllosilicates on Mars. Nontronite, montmorillonite, kaolinite, and hydrated silica have been identified throughout the region …
