Crystal in Canada might grow on Mars.

This article presents a possible chunk of crystal found in Ottawa that may be found on Mars. Robert Peterson a professor from Queen's University found this crystal known as meridianiite in the Okanagan Valley with some high school students. He did experiments in his garage this past winter because the meridianiite only exist in freezing temperatures. NASA wants to take a look at it because this rare mineral may be found on Mars and possibly on some moons of Jupiter.

A few years ago a Mars rover spun its tires in some white dust. The analysis found it to be rich in magnesium and sulfur. In Canada you can find this material in the waste of where people have mined before and also acidic ponds.
