Abstract
⺠We investigate Apollinaris Mons for signs of ancient hydrothermal activity. ⺠The region shows extensive evidence for volcanic and hydrologic activity. ⺠We report on various putative signs of magma-water interaction in the area. ⺠The Apollinaris Mons fan deposits may be thicker than previously estimated. ⺠Numerous mounds around the volcano could be of exobiological significance.
