The first samples collected by the Mars 2020 mission represent units exposed on the Jezero
Crater floor, from the potentially oldest Séítah formation outcrops to the potentially youngest …

The present volume is the third in a trilogy that documents naturally occurring
organohalogen compounds, bringing the total number—from fewer than 25 in 1968—to …

This study explores the suitability of apatite as a tracer of the source (s), chemistry, and
evolution of ore-forming hydrothermal fluids. This is tested by analysing the halogen (F, Cl …

The Moon can have elevated chlorine (Cl) isotope ratios, much higher than any other Solar
System objects. Deciphering the Cl isotope compositions of volcanic lunar samples is critical …

Nakhlite and chassignite martian meteorites have similar crystallization (1340±40 Ma) and
ejection (∼ 11 Ma) ages, and 87 Rb-87 Sr and 143 Sm-144 Nd compositions. Using a near …

One of the main goals of most ongoing and future space exploration missions is to search for
habitable conditions and potential signs of extraterrestrial life on Solar System bodies …

The isotopes of chlorine (37 Cl and 35 Cl) are highly fractionated in lunar samples
compared to most other Solar System materials. Recently, the chlorine isotope signatures of …

In situ rover investigations on Mars have discovered manganese oxides as fracture-filling
materials at Gale and Endeavour craters. Previous studies interpreted these minerals as …

The hydrophilic nature of halogens makes these elements ideal for probing potential
hydrous geologic processes. Generally, in magmatic settings the stable isotopes of Cl may …

Oxychlorine species are globally widespread across the Martian surface. Despite their
ubiquitous presence, the ability of oxychlorine species to serve as oxidants on Mars has …
