Scientific paper

Rocks of the highlands magnesian suite and highlands alkali suite and their evolved differentiates comprise the major component of the lunar crust in the Imbrium and Serenitatis regions. The parental magmas of these suites formed early in lunar history by complex processes involving internal melting and crustal assimilation. Snyder et al. (1995) have shown that fractional crystallization of KREEP basalt magma can produce cumulate compositions comparable to those of the HMS and HAS. Papike et al. (1996) have confirmed the KREEPy nature of the parental magmas.
