Why life exsisted on mars - a mars theory

To recap:

if you have a view on how the "rust" was created then please post it otherwise i think our conversation is pretty much done.

I have presented the data quite clearly and it is backed up by a significant amount of established scientific data.

the real problem with the idea that the oxygen came from the water, is that it would take a denaturing process to release the o2 from the water

As I have shown, there is no 'Problem' at all. The 'denaturing' process is called ion momentum transport. The Mars Express mission specifically studied this process.

i really don't care if my theory has any weight, and im not arguing that the process i described happened on mars

... But that was the crux of your whole theory... wasn't it?? Now I am confused.

and im sure that the processes you describe also happen on earth, so both theories sit at level pegging in my book

... but it didn't happen on Earth. We still have oceans.

this process occured on earth...could it have happened on mars

... the evidence clearly indicates that it didn't.
