I'm actually not certain how many resources are on Mars, the environment is so inhospitable that it is hard to be sure - that's one of the main reasons for all the failed missions!  Think of it, we aren't even sure if there's water on there yet.  Discover oil on there, though, and you can bet that Mars exploration will go up dramatically.

I won't dispute that! However, we also don't have any evidence that Mars is as inhospitable as NASA said it is.
Even the Moon for that matter.
