Distribution of rare earth elements in lunar zircon

An investigation of rare earth elements (REE) in 15 zircon grains from lunar breccia sample 14321, combined with published analyses, has allowed lunar zircon grains to be separated into four distinctive types. Type-1 zircon is characterized by the relative depletion of light REE (LREE) resulting in...
