The Curiosity Rover's Exploration of Glen Torridon, Gale Crater, Mars: An Overview of the Campaign and Scientific Results

Kristen A. Bennett et al.

Summary: The Mars Science Laboratory rover Curiosity explored the clay mineral-bearing Glen Torridon region from January 2019 to January 2021, including a short campaign on the Greenheugh pediment. Curiosity roved 5 km in total, collected samples from 11 drill holes, and conducted the first Martian organics detection experiment. The Glen Torridon region hosts abundant phyllosilicates and exhibits a great diversity and abundance of sulfur-bearing organic molecules.

CRISM-Based High Spatial Resolution Thermal Inertia Mapping Along Curiosity's Traverses in Gale Crater

John R. Christian et al.

Summary: Thermal inertia is a key property for describing the thermophysical characteristics of geologic materials. This study presents an approach to estimate apparent thermal inertias (ATI) from observations of the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter's Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars (CRISM), which provides higher spatial resolution than other orbital data sets. The ATI estimates are used to analyze and characterize surface properties in different regions on Mars, such as the abundance of large grains in basaltic sand fields, the increase in rock fragments on the Vera Rubin ridge, the presence of wind-blown sand on the Greenheugh pediment, and the exposure of bench-like bedrock in Glen Torridon.

Orbital and In-Situ Investigation of Periodic Bedrock Ridges in Glen Torridon, Gale Crater, Mars

Kathryn M. Stack et al.

Summary: The study focuses on unique wind-eroded bedrock ridges in the Glen Torridon region of Gale crater on Mars, suggesting they were carved during the exhumation of Mount Sharp. Although questions remain about the formation of these ridges, known as periodic bedrock ridges (PBRs), they provide important insights into the depositional and erosional history of the crater.

Evolved Gas Analyses of Sedimentary Rocks From the Glen Torridon Clay-Bearing Unit, Gale Crater, Mars: Results From the Mars Science Laboratory Sample Analysis at Mars Instrument Suite

A. C. McAdam et al.

Summary: Evolved gas analysis data from the Sample Analysis at Mars instrument suite confirmed the presence of Fe-rich smectite, carbonate, oxidized organics, Fe/Mg sulfate, and chloride in sedimentary rocks from the Glen Torridon region of Gale crater on Mars. The mineralogy and chemistry data suggest that the environmental history of the region involved alteration with fluids of variable redox potential, chemistry and pH under a range of fluid-to-rock ratio conditions. This indicates the past habitability of the GT region and the availability of carbon for potential microbial life, although the lack of significant nitrogen may have limited microbial habitability.

The Physical Properties and Geochemistry of Grains on Aeolian Bedforms at Gale Crater, Mars

Catherine M. Weitz et al.

Summary: This study reports on the physical properties and geochemistry of aeolian bedform grains along the Curiosity rover traverse in Gale crater. The dominant grains in the study area are <150 μm in size, with coarser grains present on larger active bedforms. Geochemical measurements show variations in element concentrations according to position and sand activity, with a correlation between Mg and Ni on active surfaces and between Ti and Cr in majority of active sands.

Mars Science Laboratory CheMin Data From the Glen Torridon Region and the Significance of Lake-Groundwater Interactions in Interpreting Mineralogy and Sedimentary History

Michael T. Thorpe et al.

Summary: The Glen Torridon region in Gale crater on Mars exhibits strong clay mineral signatures, which have been confirmed by the CheMin instrument onboard the Curiosity rover. The presence of new phases such as Fe-carbonates and a novel peak at 9.2 angstroms suggests the potential existence of new mineral species on Mars. Co-occurrence of Fe-carbonate and Fe-rich clay minerals supports a conceptual model of a lacustrine groundwater mixing environment in the GT region.

Brine-driven destruction of clay minerals in Gale crater, Mars

T. F. Bristow et al.

Summary: The sedimentary rock record on Mars provides insight into ancient geological processes, potentially relevant to astrobiology. The Curiosity rover's exploration on Mount Sharp revealed spatial differences in mineralogy and suggested the widespread destabilization of silicate minerals driven by silica-poor brines in ancient Mars.
