Two New Evolved Gabbroic Samples from Apollo 16

Abstract

We have found petrographic and geochemical data for two evolved monomict mafic rocks collected at the Apollo 16 site. While they somewhat resemble sodic ferrogabbro, they may be fragments of the Th-rich plutonic rocks thought to underlie the PKT. Additional information is contained in the original extended abstract.
