I think I was pretty close.

They call it organic matter, but cannot say if it is organic.

Excitement plus...... or just boring science...... check out the article

What has Nasa found on Mars? Space agency to make a major announcement on Thursday about life on the red planet

Nasa will reveal ‘new results from Mars Curiosity rover’ at the press conference
The announcement could provide new evidence of life on the red planet
Curiosity has started drilling into the Martian surface after an 18-month hiatus

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/ ... -week.html

It's a pity they can't send a large drilling rig to Mars & drill down 100s of meters.
There could be underground rivers & all sorts of interesting sites.
Maybe there, they would find microbes.

I am convinced that there is microbial life on Mars.
The reason is that rocks from Mars were found in Antarctic ice
& therefore Earth rocks must have reached Mars too.
Rocks can protect microbes in a long journey through space.

The rocks were ejected from both planets after massive asteroid impacts.
