Scientific paper
A response is given to Korotev's (1990) suggestion that the anomalously large abundances of siderophiles in Apollo 16 breccias were supplied by the impact of a meteorite with a grossly nonchondritic composition. It is suggested that the siderophiles display systematic relationships which suggest that the siderophiles were present as oxidized species in the lunar crust before the impact of chondritic-type meteorites with the lunar surface. Instead, it is found that the high abundances of siderophiles may refelct an important contribution from ejected terrestrial material.
