Suppose ℛ is a finite commutative ring of prime characteristic, 𝒜 is a finite ℛ-module, 𝕄:=ℤD×ℕE, and Φ is an ℛ-linear cellular automaton on 𝒜𝕄. If μ is a Φ-invariant measure which is multiply σ-mixing in a certain way, then we show that μ must be the Haar measure on a coset of some submodule shift of 𝒜𝕄. Under certain conditions, this means that μ must be the uniform Bernoulli measure on 𝒜𝕄.
