In the western portion of the proximal ejecta of Bakhuysen Crater, a geologic contact between two units is visible. Mapping of these units may give insight into the emplacement of ejecta for large basin impact structures on Mars. Small-scale mounds near one such contact may be hydrothermal in origin.
