Anorthosite Agglutinates

Exolith Simulant: Anorthosite Agglutinates

Crushed Anorthosite Agglutinates:
Graph comparing particle size distribution between Apollo 16 soils and LHS-1 Simulant. X-axis shows particle size in micrometers; Y-axis shows percentage finer. Apollo 16 soils are in dotted lines, LHS-1 in squares.
