Abstract
Martian meteorites are the only available Martian Materials on Earth. A suite of demagnetization experiments, temperature dependence of saturation magnetization, scanning electron microscopy, and electron microprobe analysis were carried out to characterize the remanent magnetization carriers of Martian meteorite SaU 008. A stable paleomagnetic record of SaU 008 originates from a newly found spinel ((Fe, Cr, Ti)-spinel) whose composition has never been documented (or identified as magnetic).
