Our team take a ChemCam LIBS observation and a Mastcam image of the "Peeler Lake" target, a dim, nodular target that appears to be more erosion-resistant than close-by stones. By reviewing Peeler Lake to "Kings Canyon" (which likewise has some blemishes), the scientific research group might manage to calculate more regarding their relative make-ups. ChemCam likewise takes RMI images of the Kings Gulch pierce tailings. There is actually also a ChemCam RMI variety of Gediz Vallis and a Mastcam of the "Heavens High Pond" target, which is a stone with a grey finish.
