Abstract

The martian Northwest Africa (NWA) 7034 was examined both petrographically and geochemically using sev- eral micro-beam techniques including electron probe microanalysis and secondary ion . We have identified various clast types of igneous, sedimentary, and impact origin that occur within the , and we define a classification scheme for these materials based on our observations, although our primary focus here is on the petrology of the igneous clasts. A number of different igneous clasts are present in this meteorite, and our study revealed the presence of at least four different igneous lithologies (, basaltic andesite, trachyandesite, and an Fe, Ti, and P (FTP) rich lithology). These lithologies do not appear to be related by simple igneous processes such as fractional crystallization, indicating NWA 7034 is a polymict breccia that contains samples from several different igneous sources. The basalt lithologies are a good match for measured rock compositions from the , however more exotic lithologies (e.g., trachyandesite and FTP lithologies) show this meteorite contains previously unsampled rock types from . These new rock types provide evi- dence for a much greater variety of igneous rocks within the martian crust than previously revealed by martian , and supports recent rover observations of lithologic diversity across the martian surface. Furthermore, the ancient ages for the lithologic components in NWA 7034 indicate Mars developed this lithologic diversity in the early stages of crust formation. Ó 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

The darker regions (pl) are clusters of small feldspathic crystals (plagioclase composition) while the lighter gray regions (gl/px) are devitrified mesostasis and skeletal pyroxene grains. The clast is rimmed by feldspathic stubs that are again of plagioclase composition. The large bright grains near the center of the clast (FeS) are Fe- sulfides. The dotted line shows a possible cluster of trapped pre-existing material that was incorporated into the melt clast.

3.3.2. Basaltic andesite clasts Two clasts fall in the basaltic andesite field in the TAS classification diagram of Cox et al. (1984). No analogous compositions have been reported by previous authors from this meteorite or its pairs. The most significant feature of these clasts that sets them apart from the basalt clasts is the low abundance of Fe–Ti oxides and apatite; their min- eralogy is therefore dominated by plagioclase and pyrox- ene, leading to their elevated SiO2 contents relative to the basalt clasts. The two clasts comprising this group (Clast 1 and Clast 77) are extremely different from each other (see Section 3.2.2). The Mg#s for these two clasts are 57 (Clast 1) and 28 (Clast 77); the Clast 1 Mg# is within the range established by the basalt clasts, but Clast 77 has a very different Mg# due to the Ca and Fe rich nature of Fig. 15.

3.3.4. FTP clasts An estimated range for the bulk compositions of the FTP clast type was determined from the average mineral compositions for this clast type and three clasts represent- ing the range in modal mineralogy. The field for this esti- mated range is shown in Fig. 17. These clasts represent a unique lithology that has not been identified previously as a martian rock type. Due to the high abundance of non-sili- cate phases, these clasts fall outside of the fields on the Cox et al. (1984) classification scheme, and would fall in the foi- dite field of the Le Maitre (1984) classification scheme. However, the FTP clasts we have observed in this study are highly variable in their mineral modes, and this is likely due in large part to their small size, so we hesitate at this juncture to assign a formal name to this lithology, as it can- Fig. 17.
