The rover crushed a section of rock with its wheels and discovered a rare sample of pure yellow sulfur crystals.

While surveying the site of an ancient channel on Mars, the Curiosity rover ran over a rock and discovered pure sulfur on the red planet for the first time.

NASA’s Curiosity rover made a “mind-blowing” discovery on Mars — yellowish-green crystals of pure sulfur, never before seen on Earth’s mysterious red neighbor, according to scientists.

The crystals are pure sulfur, a first-time find on Mars. While researchers are intrigued, it is not fully known why it formed in this region.

NASA scientists say pure sulfur has been found on Mars for the first time after the Curiosity rover inadvertently uncovered a cluster of yellow crystals when it drove over a rock.

Previously, the rover uncovered minerals mixed with sulfur. But this is the first time pure sulfur has been discovered on Mars.

"Finding a field of stones made of pure sulfur is like finding an oasis in the desert," NASA scientist Ashwin Vasavada said.
