Hyperspectral mapping of an ancient hydrothermal system [abstract # 12979
Hydrothermal deposits have been suggested as locations of high importance in the search for fossilized forms of ancient biota on Earth [Walter and Des Marais, 1993; Farmer and Des Marais, 1999]. They occur where spatially confined warm (50 O) to hot (500O) fluids are in disequilibrium with their hos...
