a Orbital context image showing the Perseverance rover traverse and locations of monocrystalline olivine in abrasion targets in Jezero crater. See Table S4 for image source. b Elevations and geologic units for the studied abrasion patches. Circles correspond to the crater floor, diamonds to the fan front, squares to the upper fan, triangles to float boulders in the upper fan and hexagons to the Margin Unit. Larger coloured markers correspond to abrasions with olivine identified by MIST in spatially coherent monocrystalline regions, smaller coloured markers correspond to abrasions without MIST identified olivine in spatially coherent monocrystalline regions (Table 1). A single colour is given to each science campaign analysed in this study. Smaller white markers correspond to abrasions without any detected stoichiometric olivine. During the crater floor campaign, the rover traversed the boundary between the Máaz and Séítah formations.
