Lunar Sample 15386
| Mission | Apollo 15 |
|---|---|
| Lithology | basalt |
| Description | 15386 is the largest sample of pristine KREEP basalt in the collection. By pristine we mean that it is lacking in meteoritical siderophiles (Ir, Re, Au etc), and hence not contaminated by meteorite debris. Thus it is thought to represent an indogenous lunar volcanic melt derived from the lunar interior (see discussion in 15382). |
