Scientific paper

Chemical and mineralogical analyses of the Martian meteorite ALH84001 have shown that it contains primarily orthopyroxene, which differentiates it from other Martian meteorites. Detailed spectroscopic analyses of multiple chip surfaces and a particulate sample of ALH84001 are presented here. The IR spectra of the chip and powder samples exhibit features characteristic of several minerals. The 5-25-micron spectra of ALH84001 are especially difficult to interpret because of multiple mineral components and particle size variations.
