Two billion years of magmatism recorded from a single Mars meteorite ejection site

The timing and nature of igneous activity recorded at a single Mars ejection site can be determined from the isotope analyses of Martian meteorites. Northwest Africa (NWA) 7635 has an Sm-Nd crystallization age of 2.403 +/- 0.140 billion years, and isotope data indicate that it is derived from an inc...
