Petrography and Mineralogy of Dhofar 1428 Lunar Highland Regolith Breccia
Introduction: Dhofar 1428 is a lunar feldspathic breccia found in 2006. Bunch et al. [1] briefly described mineral chemistry of Dhofar 1428. Korotev and Zeigler [2] analyzed its bulk FeO and Sm compositions. Here, we report such detailed data for Dhofar 1428. Results and Discussion: Dhofar 1428 has a distinct breccia texture with numerous fragments of rock, mineral, and glass all welded by a gl...
متن کاملDepartment of Mineralogy , Petrography and Geochemistry
Department of Mineralogy, Petrography and Geochemistry is the oldest Earth science department at the AGH University of Science and Technology. It was created in 1919 as one of the first six departments of the Academy of Mining and was initially named as the Department of Mineralogy and Petrography. The Department was organized by Professor Józef Morozewicz (1865–1941) who chaired the Organizing...
متن کاملPetrography and Geochemistry of Dhofar 733 – an Unusually Sodic, Feldspathic Lunar
Introduction: Dhofar 733 is a 98-g lunar meteorite collected in the Dhofar region of Oman in 2002 [1]. In the initial description [1], Dhofar 733 is described as an anorthositic granulitic breccia, one that is probably not paired with any other lunar meteorite on the basis of its unique texture and isolation from other lunar meteorites (the next closest lunar meteorite was found 22 km away). Th...
متن کاملLunar Meteorite Dhofar 026: a Second-generation Impact Melt
Introduction: The meteorite Dhofar 026 (Dh26) was found in Oman in January, 2000 [1]. It is a clastpoor, anorthositic, crystalline melt breccia with no fusion crust and little terrestrial weathering. Solar wind abundance measurements show that it is unpaired with the lunar regolith breccia Dhofar 025 [2]. The Dh26 oxygen isotopic composition indicates its lunar origin [3], while its majorand tr...
متن کاملMapping the Spatial Distribution, Mineralogy, and Geochemistry of Lunar Highlands
Introduction: Knowledge of the surface mineralogy and chemistry of the crust is central to understanding the evolution of the lunar crust. Using the 5-band ultravioletvisible (UVVIS) Clementine data set, Tompkins and Pieters [1] showed that approximate mineralogy could be determined from Clementine data and analyzed 109 impact craters detailing the approximate mineralogy, or rocktypes, of their...
