Description | Samples 14082/14083 are white rocks collected at Station C1, 1.24 km ENE of the LM and 17 m SE of the rim of Cone Crater. They are representative of one of the major rock types as seen in lunar photo documentation. The sample was chipped from the top of White Rock, a 1 m breccia boulder with consipicous 1 cm dark and light clasts in a very light gray matrix. This sample was placed in bag 13N and returned in ALSRC 1006. By the time it had arrived at the LRL, it had broken into two pieces and these were numbered 14082 and 14083. Sample 14082 was studied extensively by the Ibrium Consortium, from which much of this information is derived. Sample 14082/14083 is one of the white rocks. It is a polymict breccia with a very light gray matrix and darker lithic clasts. |
