Abstract

Abstract The Curiosity rover has analyzed abundant light‐toned fracture‐fill material within the Yellowknife Bay sedimentary deposits. The ChemCam instrument, coupled with Mastcam and ChemCam/Remote Micro Imager images, was able to demonstrate that these fracture fills consist of calcium sulfate vei...
