Basalt would be very surprising as a vein fill.
The veins are probably the result of some kind of groundwater activity (fluids). Transported or solved minerals have been precipitated in fractures, or even extended the fractures. In a previous post T. Demko provided a link to very detailed explanations. |

interesting little 'filament' at the bottom of the image here, theres no parellax betweent he two sol940 m100s, and the m34 doesnt provide enough resolution in the second crosseye, nonetheless it does seem to be half embedded in and thus eroded out of the rock (outcrop?) at its left, as opposed to being a segment of cleanly detached fill vein as if jetsam from Kanosh.

Jan's sol 940 panorama in circular form - it shows the path through the valley quite clearly, and the view back to Pahrump Hills..

A NavCam anaglyph of the Garden City, Sol 944
Here in England, we've had garden cities since 1898, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden_city_movement, I think this pre-dates that though,
