    i lied, this planet is too hot to have a hydrosphere of liquid water so idk how iron dust would rust and give it a reddish look

    in a second analyzis, however, it seems to be significantly MORE massive than the earth (citation needed) despite being only 75% of its size, so maybe it does still have stuff like tectonic activity and a surviving weak atmosphere similar to mars

    given it is between the size of mars and venus, it would probably have initially retained an atmosphere and possibly hydrosphere in the early stages of its post molten history, which would give it a geology similar to mars

    likely tidally locked, as it is really close to the star, which makes the magnectic field weak since tidal locking results in slow rotation, also it is smaller than the earth, which helps in that. in conclusion, this planet would likely just be a heavily cratered grayish world, perharps a little brownish or tan
