Mars: Sedimentary layers in Becquerel crater - Mars: Periodic Layering in Becquerel Crater - Detail on sedimentary layers in Becquerel crater (Arabia Terra region), obtained on June 10, 2007 by the HIRISE camera on board the Mars Reconnaissance orbiter probe. This image in false colors shows sedimentary rocks in pink, sand in blue. The study of these sedimentary depot strata suggests that the climate of Mars is linked to the inclination of the axis of rotation of the planet. Rhythmic bedding in sedimentary bedrock within Becquerel crater on Mars is suggested by the patterns in this image from the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRise) camera on Nasa's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. Three dimensional analysis based on stereo pairs of images confirmed the regularity of repetition in the thickness of the beds. In the top half of this image, some of the rhythm is apparent as a series of bundles of about 10 individual layers per bundle. By corresponding to a known 10 - to - one pattern in changes in the tilt of Mars' rotation axis, this pattern suggests the periodicity in the rock layers results from cyclical changes in the planet's tilt. Individual layers in the scence average 3.6 meters (12 feet) thick. The view is presented in enhanced color emphasizing the differing compositions of surface material. Sand trapped in relative low points in the terrain appears blue. Sedimentary rocks appear pink. This image was taken on June 10, 2007. The location of the imaged area is at 22 degrees north latitude, 352 degrees east longitude, within the Arabia Terra region — Mars: Sedimentary layers in Becquerel crater - Mars: Periodic Layering in Becquerel Crater - Detail on sedimentary layers in Becquerel crater (Arabia Terra region), obtained on June 10, 2007 by the HIRISE camera on board the Mars Reconnaissance orbiter probe.

March: Hebes Chasma - Mars: Hebes Chasma - Hebes Chasma is a basin of almost 8000 m deep located in the northern part of Valles Marineris, the great Martian canyon. At the centre of this depression is a stratified plateau that constitutes sedimentary deposits. Image obtained by the Mars Express probe in 2005. View of Hebes Chasma obtained by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on ESA's Mars Express spacecraft. Hebes Chasma is an enclosed trough, almost 8000 m deep, in Valles Marineris, the Grand Canyon of Mars. A mesa - like mountain is located in the center of Hebes Chasma. It reaches 8000 meters above the graben floor and extends almost to the top of the surrounding plain. The mountain is made up by numerous stacked rock layers. The layering may consists of remnants of the older plateau, lake sediments, wind blown sediments or volcanic rock. The rock layers were exposed by erosional processes. Newest data acquired by the OMEGA spectrometer on - board Mars Express revealed hydratized (water - bearing) minerals like gypsum in some areas of Hebes Chasma. What ever kind of processes led to the formation of the Interior Layered Deposits: at least some water once existed in Hebes Chasma. Hebes Chasma is located at approximately 1* south and 282* east. The HRSC obtained image data on 16 September 2005 with a ground resolution of approximately 15 m/pixel — March: Hebes Chasma - Mars: Hebes Chasma - Hebes Chasma is a basin of almost 8000 m deep located in the northern part of Valles Marineris, the great Martian canyon.

Cananea Copper Mine - Mexico - Cananea Copper Mine - Sonora - Mexico: The Cananea Mine is an open pit copper and gold mine located in Mexico. Its production began in 1899. Image taken from the International Space Station (ISS) on June 27, 2016. One of the largest open-pit copper mines in the world, the Cananea mine produced over 164,000 tonnes of copper in 2006. The mine is located approximately 40 km south of the border between the USA (Arizona) and Mexico (Sonora). Copper and gold ores at Cananea are found in a porphyry copper deposit, a geological structure formed by crystal-rich magma moving upwards through pre-existing rock layers. The mine workings at Cananea are significant in the recent history of Mexico, as poor working conditions there in 1906 led to a mineral's strike that resulted in 19 deaths. This event is generally considered to a major catalyst of the Mexican Revolution of 1910, as well as the beginning of Mexico's labor movement. Current environmental and economic conditions at the mine led to a worker strike that halted mine operations in 2007.

Cananea Copper Mine - Mexico - Cananea Copper Mine - Sonora - Mexico: The Cananea Mine is an open pit copper and gold mine located in Mexico. Its production began in 1899. Image taken from the International Space Station (ISS) on March 3, 2008. One of the largest open-pit copper mines in the world, the Cananea mine produced over 164,000 tonnes of copper in 2006. The mine is located approximately 40 km south of the border between the USA (Arizona) and Mexico (Sonora). Copper and gold ores at Cananea are found in a porphyry copper deposit, a geological structure formed by crystal-rich magma moving upwards through pre-existing rock layers. A porphyry - an igneous rock with large crystals in a fine-grained matrix - is formed as the magma cools and crystallizes. While crystallization is occurring, hot fluids can circulate through the magma and surrounding rocks via fractures. This hydrothermal alteration of the rocks typically forms copper-bearing and other minerals. The active, 2 km in diameter Colorada Pit is recognizable in this astronaut photograph by the concentric steps or benches cut around its perimeter. These benches allow for access into the pit for extraction of ore and waste materials. The city of Cananea - marked by its street grid - is located to the northeast of the mine workings. A leachate reservoir is located to the east of the mine for removal and evaporation of water pumped from the mine workings - the bluish-white coloration of deposits near the reservoir suggests the high mineral content of the leachate. The mine workings at Cananea are significant in the recent history of Mexico, as poor working conditions there in 1906 led to a mineral's strike that resulted in 19 deaths. This event is generally considered to a major catalyst of the Mexican Revolution of 1910, as well as the beginning of Mexico's labor movement. Current environmental and economic conditions at the mine led to a worker strike that halted mine operations in 2007 — Cananea Copper Mine - Mexico - Cananea Copper Mine - Sonora - Mexico: The Cananea Mine is an open pit copper and gold mine located in Mexico. Its production began in 1899. Image taken from the International Space Station (ISS) on March 3, 2008. One of the largest open-pit copper mines in the world, the Cananea mine produced over 164,000 tonnes of copper in 2006. The mine is located approximately 40 km south of the border between the USA (Arizona) and Mexico (Sonora). Copper and gold ores at Cananea are found in a porphyry copper deposit, a geological structure formed by crystal-rich magma moving upwards through pre-existing rock layers. A porphyry - an igneous rock with large crystals in a fine-grained matrix - is formed as the magma cools and crystallizes. While crystallization is occurring, hot fluids can circulate through the magma and surrounding rocks via fractures. This hydrothermal alteration of the rocks typically forms copper-bearing and other minerals. The active, 2 km in dia
