Description
Summary:The significance of the lunar highland pristine cumulate samples were reevaluated with the aid of the insights provided by geological constrained terrestrial investigations. This exercise involved a review of the state of knowledge about terrestrial and lunar cumulate rocks as well as an enumeration and reevaluation of the processes hypothesized to have been responsible for their formation, both classically and at present. editors, D.
