“…The martian meteorites appear to be depleted in aluminum (or plagioclase), sodium, potassium, and thorium relative to both in-situ measurements of rocks and soils of materials at the Gusev, Meridiani, Gale, and Mars Pathfinder landing sites and with orbital gamma ray spectrometer and near-infrared spectroscopy observations (McSween et al, 2009;Poulet et al, 2009;Treiman and Filiberto, 2015). These differences in magma composition may reflect temporal changes in the water content, oxidation state, or temperature of the mantle over time (Balta and McSween, 2013;Baratoux et al, 2013;Tuff et al, 2013;Filiberto and Dasgupta, 2015).…”
