| 内容記述 | Light colored coarse grained soils in the upper parts of cores 12027 and 15008 have a chaotic fabric and abundant bedrock-derived rock fragments. They overlie dark colored, fine grained soils with horizontal fabric and abundant regolith-derived rock fragments. The light colored soils are interpreted to be rim crest deposits associated with the craters seen in the lunar surface sampling photographs. The coarse size, poor sorting and chaotic fabric are believed to have originated by the violent mixing processes which are expected with ejecta deposition. The increase in bedrock-derived particles within the light colored soil can be explained by ejecta from craters that penetrated through or deep into the regolith. The dark soils are believed to predate the craters. Distribution of rock fragments in the material interpreted as rim crest ejecta does not fit a simple model of overturned stratigraphy. |
