Regional Paleoenvironments Recorded in Sedimentary Rocks of the Western Fan-Delta, Jezero Crater, Mars.The Mars 2020 Perseverance rover science team recently completed an investigation of the fan-delta sedimentary sequence [1] and has begun exploration of the crater margin. High resolution chemical, mineralogical, and morphological observations collected with the rover instrument payload provide powerful constraints on rock origins, contextualizing the suite of high-value samples collected as part of the Mars Sample Return campaign.
