Scientific paper

Lunar breccia 67975 is a feldspathic fragmental breccia from North Ray crater, Apollo 16. It contains clasts of alkali gabbronorite and ultra-KREEPy mafic fragment-laden melt breccias, which are unique among Apollo 16 samples. Both are alkali- and iron-rich rocks with moderate to high REE concentrations. The nature of these two unusual lithologies, the relationship of 67975 clasts to other feldspathic fragmental breccias, and implications for the history of the North Ray crater source region are the major subjects of this paper.
