A large number of radionuclides have been measured as a function of depth in lunar rock 10017 and in bulk fines. Data are reported on 10Be, 22Na, 26Al, 36Cl, 49V, 53Mn, 54Mn, 55Fe, 56Co, 57Co, and 59Ni and on upper limits for 46Sc, 48V, 51Cr, and 60Co. The results for several nuclides show striking evidence of excess surface production attributable to solar flare particles. Data for short-lived species, 56Co, 57Co, 54Mn, 55Fe, and 22Na, appear consistent with fluxes from known recent events. Long-lived species demonstrate the existence of solar flare protons and alphas at least for the last 105 to 106 years, at fluxes comparable to those now observed.
