Abstract
- Martian-analogue basalts synthesized, then oxidized, in the laboratory exhibit gray hematite coatings on exposed glass surfaces. We explore potential connections between these hematite coatings and the coarse, gray hematite signatures seen on Mars. Additional information is contained in the original extended abstract.
