Olivine on Mars
Edited Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter image of olivine on Mars originally detected by ESA's Mars Express, and imaged here by MRO.
Original caption: Another Area of Possibly Olivine-Rich Terrain — Olivine was detected by the OMEGA instrument onboard Mars Express, and our camera can take a much closer look. This is located within an ancient, massive impact crater.
