Interesting Deposits at Equator

Odd materials found at the Martian Equator now have scientists very intriqued-- and confused. Matierials spotted appear to be made of high quantities of water, something only previously spotted at the poles. New data suggests two possible scenarios:
1. That the deposits are dry, low-density matierials giving off a false reading
2. That the equator is rich in ice.

Similar to the Earth, finding ice caps in the middle and supposedly warmest section of the planet is mistifying, however only more data and research will prove helpful to solve this puzzle.
