A Non-Biological Origin for the Nanophase Magnetite Grains in ALH84001: Experimental ResultsWe subjected siderite-magnesite carbonates to a short-lived thermal pulse. Individual magnetite grains that formed are 10 to 20 nm in size and randomly oriented. Shape and size distribution of these grains appear similar to those seen in ALH84001. Additional information is contained in the original extended abstract.
