Fe oxidation processes may have occurred during groundwater-mediated diagenesis in Meridiani Planum sediments. To address this question, melanterite oxidation experiments were conducted at epsomite saturation as a function of pH. Results show that schwertmannite is initially formed from acidic Fe oxidation and that its formation and aging to mixtures of jarosite and nanocrystalline goethite is strongly controlled by pH over the range b <2.0-4.0. The pH is controlled in turn by Fe oxidation and Fe3+ hydrolysis. In one 77-d oxidation experiment, nanocrystalline hematite was tentatively identified by MC6ssbauer spectroscopy. Accordingly, aging experiments with synthetic nanocrystalline goethite were conducted (1) to further resolve the formati...
