- Bulk composition and early differentiation of Mars (2007, background): “It might, however, have occurred locally: Bandfield et al. [2004] reported patches of granitoid materials and Christensen et al. [2005] describe dacite in Syrtis Major.”
- Global distribution, composition, and abundance of olivine on the surface of Mars from thermal infrared data (2008, methodology): “Quartz was shown to be ambiguous with the Fo25–41 index and has been detected on Mars but in only a few well-known locations that are easily identifiable [ Bandfield et al., 2004 ].”
- An overview of the 1985-2006 Mars Orbiter Camera science investigation (2010, background): “Some of the science community requests resulted in publications, including research by Bandfield et al. (2004), Fassett and Head (2005), Mouginis-Mark and Christensen (2005), Schneider and Hamilton (2006), Tournabene et al.”
- Mineralogy of the Martian Surface (2014, background): “Exposures of granitoid rocks had also been reported on Mars (Bandfield et al. 2004, Bandfield 2006); however, further analysis demonstrated that these deposits are hydrated silica and quartz that formed during hydrothermal alteration or diagenesis of mafic crustal materials (Ehlmann et al. 2009,…”
- Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars (CRISM) on Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) (2007, background): “Granitoid compositions, suggesting evolved magmas, are observed in northwest Syrtis Major [Bandfield et al., 2004].”
- Mineralogy and evolution of the surface of Mars: A review (2007, background): “The main silicates observed on the surface are olivine pyroxene and plagioclase, although recent evidence for silica-rich quartzo-feldspathic minerals (Bandfield et al., 2004) seems to indicate that magmatic differentiation may have proceed further than previously thought.”
