Sand Mineralogy Within the Bagnold Dunes, Gale Crater, as Observed In Situ and From Orbit
Curiosity investigated active eolian sands near linear dunes during Phase 2 of the Bagnold Dunes campaign in Gale crater, Mars. Ogunquit Beach, a sample scooped from a large‐ripple trough within the Mount Desert Island ripple field and delivered to the ...

An evolutionary system of mineralogy. Part I: Stellar mineralogy (>13 to 4.6 Ga)
Minerals preserve records of the physical, chemical, and biological histories of their origins and subsequent alteration, and thus provide a vivid narrative of the evolution of Earth and other worlds through billions of years of cosmic history.
