| Sample Type | core |
| Lithology | soil |
| Location | Taken 2 meters from two 1 meter craters on southeast flank of Van Serg crater ejecta blanket, at Station 9 |
| Description | Double drive tube 79001/79002 was taken 2 meters from two 1 meter craters on the southeast flank of the Van Serg crater ejecta blanket, at Station 9. The site has a gentle slope to the southeast away from Van Serg crater. Fragments 2-20 cm cover 3% of the surface. Astronauts report that driving the first core was easy. The second one was a little tougher, and then it got very hard at the end. >1mm particles were hand picked and not sieved, where they would have broken down, so there is a discontinuity in the size distribution caused by the lab procesures. |
