Chuck,
It would indicate the presence of life at the time of deposition of the sediment it is contained in. These sediments are anticipated to be very old geologically.

My guess being a geologist is that the "SAM" detected complex hydrocarbon compounds that are indicative of organic life on earth.

I can't imagine what kind of a chemical signature would cause such a
