Paladino vincenzino 6/15/2021 4:07:37 PM	thanks Mike , there are 2 special topics in this sample. the first is the metal which I think is carried by the impactor body. the second argument is oxidation (perhaps terrestrial?) But from the latest discoveries it is certain that on the lunar side facing the earth, there is the presence of hematite. then could it be oxidation on the moon?
Mike Murray 6/15/2021 3:57:52 PM	That piece is actually pretty special. Why wouldn't there be metal in some ejecta from impacts on the moon?
