Scientific paper

Correlation between the Cayley Formation and the magnetic anomaly at the Apollo 16 site in the northern plains of the crater Van de Graaf is discounted. The planar fill in the north end of Van de Graaf is described as dissimilar from Cayley-like plains, and orbital magnetic data collected by Apollo sub-satellites is shown not to substantiate the correlation of Cayley-like plains with any particular magnetic signature. The magnetic anomaly near Van de Graaf is explained as most likely being due to a subsurface source.
