Moon - LUN Group Meteorites for Sale and Trade
Lunar meteorites are of major scientific importance because they
probably originate from areas of the Moon that were not sampled by the
Apollo or Luna missions. Most lunaites in our collections obviously have
been blasted from the lunar highlands that cover the far side of the Moon.
Only a few lunar meteorites have their origin from the smooth lowlands,
the maria of the near side, which served as the preferred landing sites
for the Apollo missions. Four different types of lunar rocks have been
sampled in the form of meteorites thus far: anorthositic highland rocks
(LUN A), mare basalts (LUN B), mare gabbros (LUN G), and a unique lunar
norite (LUN N), representing the deep, olivine-rich layers of the lunar
crust. All of these meteorites share the typical features of lunar rocks,
e.g., similar manganese to iron ratios, and oxygen isotopic compositions
that plot on the terrestrial fractionation line.
