The objective of this study was to study the size and shape of magnetite in the carbonate globules of ALH84001 in comparison to terrestrial biogenic magnetite, since the shape and size analysis data of the magnetite in the carbonate globules of Martian meteorite ALH84001 provides an important basis for comparison with terrestrial biogenic magnetite. It is found that the mean particle size and the size distribution of the magnetite crystals in carbonate globules of ALH84001 meteorite are comparable with those of bacterial magnetite from magnetotactic bacteria strain MS-1.
