Syrtis Major Planum
Syrtis Major Planum is a "dark spot" (an albedo feature ) located in the boundary between the northern lowlands and southern highlands of Mars just west of the impact basin Isidis in the Syrtis Major quadrangle . It was discovered, on the basis of data from Mars Global Surveyor , to be a low-relief shield volcano , [1] but was formerly believed to be a plain , and was then known as Syrtis Major Planitia . The dark color comes from the basaltic volcanic rock of the region and the relative lack of dust.
