The study of palagonitic soils is an active area of research in martian geoscience because the spectral and magnetic properties of a subset are spectral and/or magnetic analogues of martian bright regions. An understanding of the composition, distribution, and mineralogy of ferric-bearing phases for palagonitic soils forms, through spectral and magnetic data, a basis for inferring the nature of ferric-bearing phases on Mars. Progress has been made in this area, but the data set is incomplete, especially with respect to the nature of pigmenting phases. The purpose of this study is to identify the nature of the pigment for Hawaiian palagonitic soil PN-9 by using extraction procedures to selectively remove iron oxide phases. This soil was collected at the same locale as samples Hawaii 34 and VOL02. All three soils are good spectral analogues for martian bright regions.
