Materials
  Name Arrangement Mass (g) Mass fraction Abundance comments
Pyrrhotite sub-micrometer size grains 0.83 This abundance value is a lower value, because some amount of ammonium salt (but probably very little) may have sublimated with the water ice during preparation of this sublimate residue. Massic abundance superior or equal to about 83 wt%. Volumetric abundance equal or superior to about 59 vol%.
Ammonium carbamate 0.17 This abundance value is an upper value, because some amount of ammonium salt (but probably very little) may have sublimated with the water ice during preparation of this sublimate residue. Massic abundance lower or equal to about 17 wt%. Volumetric abundance lower or equal to about 41 vol%.
