As a geologist I will make several comments;- 1) I am surprised to see so much broken rock, and sand. There must be strong weathering of the original solid rock, or crater ejecta is very common and deep. 2) The layering suggests water lain sediments (to me) but it doesn't have to be. 3) tilted layers could be caused by the cratering (not tectonics) 4) the last pictures showed an area of small (concretionary) spheres and what looked like crystal growth on the edges of the irregular shaped rocks. These to me are indications of water in the area at some time in the past. Great images, great resolution.

The rocks at 4:39 appear to be Ah-ah lava, which is strange because it has held this rugged shape for billions of years, while the rest of the field looks to have been flooded with water. On Earth, Ah-ah lave decomposes fast, within a few months, but there is little to erode that fragile shape, except gravity and water long ago on Mars. Could be it represents an incursion long after the water had already been lost.
