Rock guys, what mineral is it?

A reviewer just said the following micrographs show “mineral
rinds”instead of fossilized blood vessels as I claimed. Exactly what
mineral is it?

As I know, most Martian meteorites are igneous rocks which are harder
than sedimentary rocks and more likely to survive from impacts hit on
Martian surface, ejection to leave Mars and burining when they entered
Earth's atomoshphere.
mammal fossils are mostly found in sedimentary rocks rather than
igneous rocks which formed from crystallization of magma because any
animals or organic matters will be burned out after they fall into a
lava.
evidence for past life on Mars could be Microorganism or small animals
who get into Martian rocks along cracks of igneous rocks which was
already cooling down to low temperature.

What I suggest you to do
Firstly, confirm the rock type of your meteorites by recognizing a
couple most abundant minerals in them. (can be easily done by
yourself)
Secondly, find out where those meteorites came from and what are names
of those meteorites (Most Martian meteorites have been named and
studied)

What you said is mostly geological knowledge, not anatomical
knowledge, which is essential in talking about fossils. Fossils
include cell/tissue remains, not just bones. Disprove me directly
rather than beating about bush. If you can, my ultimate evidence is
