Scientific paper

Electron microprobe and petrographic analyses of an Apollo 15 sample, 15382, from the Apennine Front, have revealed KREEP chemistry and very low concentrations of the characteristic meteorite siderophile elements: Ir, Os, Re, Au, and Ni. It is a crystalline basalt, practically identical in texture and mineral zoning patterns to other lunar high-alumina basalts.
