The spectroscopic, chemical, and photophysical properties of Martian soils and their analogs (MERC, phase 2) [PDF]
A series of variably proportioned iron/calcium smectite clays and iron loaded smectite clays containing iron up to the level found in the Martian soil were prepared from a typical montomorillonite clay using the Banin method.

Mineralogy and fluvial history of the watersheds of Gale, Knobel, and Sharp craters: A regional context for the Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity's exploration [PDF]
A 500 km long network of valleys extends from Herschel crater to Gale, Knobel, and Sharp craters. The mineralogy and timing of fluvial activity in these watersheds provide a regional framework for deciphering the origin of sediments of Gale crater's ...
