Mars and moon regolith simulants are comparable to Earth soils, at least in mineral composition.
“Since the Mars and moon regolith simulants are comparable to Earth soils, at least in mineral composition [23]–[28], they can be mimicked by using volcanic Earth soils, as has been done by NASA [23], [24].”

“Possible weathering of primary minerals in martian conditions has been studied through two main mechanisms: either by liquid–solid interaction (Burns, 1993; Burns and Fisher, 1990c; Catling, 1999), or by solid–gas mechanism (Gooding, 1978).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
