1 Mineral identification using CRISM data from Capri Chasma region of Mars K.N. Kusuma Megha Bhatt Prabhjot Kaur Satadru Bhattachraya Hari Nair

2 Frt00008112_07_1f_164l_trr3 Capri Chasma Map projected I/F ratio image MAF Image - mafic mineral distribution

3 D2300, BD2500H2, BD1900_2 Carbonate Index Map (Viviano-Beck et al., 2014) Bluish or yellowish white region indicate Mg carbonates Red/magenta – Fe/Mg phyllosilicate Blue – other hydrated minerals (sulfates, clays, hydrated silica etc)

4 Identification of mineral based on carbonate index 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6

5 Comparison with spectral library spectra Siderite Saponite

6 Future Plans Based on the experience gained from the exercise of Capri Chasma, similar mineralogical studies will be carried other interesting regions of Mars along with other high resolution datasets. Mineralogical maps will be prepared to better understand geological history of Mars.
