Experiments on a Martian basalt composition show that DV augite/melt is greater than DV pigeonite/melt in samples equilibrated under the same fO2 conditions. This increase is due to the increased availability of elements for coupled substitution with the V3? or V4? ions, namely Al and Na. For this bulk composition, both Al and Na are higher in concentration in augite compared with pigeonite; therefore more V can enter augite than pigeonite. Direct valence state determination by XANES shows that the V3? and V4? are the main V species in the melt at fO2 conditions of IW-1 to IW?3.5, whereas pyroxene grains at IW-1, IW, and IW?1 contain mostly V3?. This confirms the idea that V3? is more compatible in pyroxene than V4?. The XANES data also indicates that a small percentage of V2? may exist in melt and pyroxene at IW-1. The similar valence of V in glass and pyroxene at IW-1 suggests that V? and V3? may have similar compatibilities in pyroxene.
