Abstract
- The S contents of rocks and soils are indicative of various alteration processes on Mars, e.g.[1]. It has been quantified along traverses at 4 landing sites – Pathfinder, both MERs and MSL – by the APXS [2,3]. At the MSL and MER sites, sulfur abundances, correlations with likely bound cations and other elements, and complementary mineralogical and textural data have provided important insights into alteration processes and periods of more habitable environments in the distant past.
