The highlands characterize in relatively low radar emissivity, linked to possible heavy metal frost in the form of high dielectric constant compounds condensates (the metal compounds would condense there as the highlands have lower temperatures than other geological features). It is calculated (equilibrium composition of 20 trace metals considering compounds that would condense at the altitude of 2.6 km) that these condensates may not contain elemental tellurium. It is predicted that the stable condensates may include (considering the abundance of metals in supposed Earth-like oceanic crust) chalcocite, acanthite, Pb-Bi sulfosalts, and the ones given in the mineral list.
