UV/Vis

Microscope (Flor, etc)

/*
Coupled with microscope, and independent.  LED active source.  
Near IR (14,000 - 4000) cm-1 
	useful (optical doesn't tell as much as NIR).  
	Iron rich materials  (possibly coup. w/ mid IR)  

Mid IR (4000-400)cm-1
	Good for minerology, carbonates, functional groups (e.g.
	hydrocarbons).  
	With and without microscope (Look specifically at mm^2 area and find
	out what minerals are in those concretions).

Main Body

Raman (long distance): 
	Complements mid IR.  
	Senses organics & Graphite. 

Mid IR (see above) TES: 
(Hi res MidIR TES)?  

mini Raman ((same detector) on instrument arm, fibre optics)

APXS with micron sized mapping.  Grid-mapping.  
	alpha part. XRay Spec. 
	Element analysis.  
	

(EGA)/(GC)MS (We're collaborating with the Brits, Using GAP).  
	isotope fractionation not necessarily rel. to life.  
	ID Organics, Solid carbon, methane.  

	No structure on organics.  

	Isotopic analysis is not necessarily explicitly related to
	biological activity.  However, with proper fractionation references
	and calibration, life may be eventually implied.  

Bore-hole 2
Drilling
	Water-ice cage around methane/CO_2 hydrates.   Projected to be about 15m 
	underground (reference).  

	Geological interest

Mole ~ 3m dive.  
	subsurface hydrogen in the low lattitudes (10-30 cm drive)  
	permafrost

96 well plate for cultivation.  We can do Microscopic analysis.  

Circular Dichroid Spec.
