HiRISE: Contact between strata in Lucus Planum

tumblr_nx62cfDIAq1rlz4gso1_1280Contact between two differing strata types in west Lucus Planum — Material to the east and west sides exhibit differing erosional expression. Material to west exhibits thin layering of fairly uniform thickness and perhaps laterally discontinuous. The stuff on the west is fluvial sediment? Wind-blown sediment, or something else?

Beautiful Mars series.
