Scientific paper

Cryptomaria are ancient (>3.8 Ga) mare basalt deposits that are hidden or obscured by superposed higher albedo material. As such, they represent a record of the earliest mare volcanism and may be a significant volumetric contribution to the lunar crust. Interdisciplinary studies have resulted in major advances in our of ancient lunar lunar volcanism. Since the aim of this workshop is to promote integrated approaches to key problems of lunar science using multiple datasets, it seems appropriate to review the investigations that produced major advances in our understanding of ancient mare volcanism. The purposes of this report are to examine the way that multiple datasets were used to investigate ancient lunar volcanism and to present the most recent results of our studies of cryptomare using Galileo and Clementine multispectral imagery.
