Mössbauer spectra of solfatara samples compared with minerals. Spectra of the white/light (JB632) and orange (JB633) samples are composed of doublets consistent with primarily Fe3+ and some Fe2+ in minerals. Mineral spectra are presented for saponite (103), nontronite (JB175), ferrihydrite (JB499), and jarosite (132066). The vertical lines mark the doublet observed for ferrihydrite and related poorly crystalline ferric oxide species that are similar to the doublets observed in spectra of both the white/light and orange samples.
