Akaganeite (Cl-bearing Fe(III) (hydr)oxide) was identified by the Chemistry and Mineralogy X-ray diffraction (XRD) instrument onboard the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) Curiosity Rover in mudstones drilled at Yellowknife Bay and Vera Ru-bin Ridge in Gale crater [1,2]. The mineral likely formed in chloride-bearing solutions of variable pH[3]but progenitor Fe-bearing phases for martian akaganeite are not well constrained. Akaganeite in Gale crater has been proposed to form through oxidation of Fe(II) sulfide minerals [2,3]. The objectives of this study was to constrain akaganeite formation conditions from Fe(II) sulfide pyrrhotite.
