Magmatic volatiles (H, C, N, F, S, Cl) in the lunar mantle, crust, and regolith: Abundances, distributions, processes, and reservoirs
FM McCubbin, KEV Kaaden, R Tartèse… - American …, 2015 - degruyter.com
Many studies exist on magmatic volatiles (H, C, N, F, S, Cl) in and on the Moon, within the
last several years, that have cast into question the post-Apollo view of lunar formation, the …

Volatile interactions with the lunar surface
The Moon is generally depleted in volatile elements and this depletion extends to the
surface where the most abundant mineral, anorthite, features< 6 ppm H 2 O. Presumably the …
