The Apollo16 double drive tube core 64001/2 (total depth ≡60 cm) consists of 4 petrologic units based on the modal abundance of lithic, monomineralic, and other particles in the 20 - 500 μm size range of samples from 12 levels. The authors briefly describe and discuss the petrologic characteristics of the core soil 64001/2, and present new modal data on six size fractions of six samples from different levels of the lower part of the core (64001). From this and other previous data the authors infer the evolution of the regolith at this site, which seems to reveal two new aspects of regolith evolution and lateral transport of "exotic" rocks.
