Martian spectra lack a key feature that is characteristic of smectites, the 2.2 micron absorption due to a combination of stretching and bending of structural OH and metal-OH bonds. An explanation for this observation that has not been fully examined is the role of particle size. Accordingly, this paper presents preliminary analyses of reflectance spectra of naturally produced fine-grained particles which exhibit very weak 2.2 micron features.
