Sadly No .
Looked through this
to make url shorter
and even with the search term I put in , can't seem to find that/those pics .
Though there is evidence of fairly recent volcanic activity on Mars . Until ESA site itself post such , I'll consider what I posted a decent Photoshop .

So sorry for , at this time , I'll consider a false alarm . Be cool if we could catch active volcanic activity with all the proper time stamps and sources .

Email them.

A lot of "discoveries" are made by laymen science fans who just love looking at "space stuff." I'm sure someone, somewhere, with the qualifications to be able to address this has already looked at this pic. But... maybe not. Or, maybe they have, but nobody has moved on promoting it yet? So, email and ask. The worst that could happen is.. nothing. :)
