- Nakhlite meteorites are similar to 1.4 to 1.3 Ga old igneous rocks, aqueously altered on Mars similar to 630 Ma ago. We test the theory that water-rock interaction was impact driven. Electron backscatter diffraction demonstrates that the meteorites Miller Range 03346 and Lafayette were heterogeneously deformed, leading to localized regions of brecciation, plastic deformation, and mechanical twinning of augite.
