Scientific paper

Strong evidence has been found that most of the lunar highland samples represent mechanical mixtures of a differentiated (feldspathic) lunar component and a primary component from the last accretion stage of the moon. The contribution of high temperature condensates in this primary material is about 21%. Hence, an inhomogeneous accretion of the moon is indicated. After the formation of a highly refractive core, relatively more and more non-refractory material was added until the moon reached its final mass.
