Scientific paper

Raman spectroscopy is presently evaluated as a technique for the analysis of Martian mineralogy, in virtue of its accuracy in identifying silicates, carbonates, sulfates, and phosphates. Results are presented which indicate that the mineralogy of both host rocks and their coatings can be analyzed by this means, in situ; 'varnish' will be judged to be not present when plagioclase is detected.
