An estimate of the bulk, major oxide composition of the Moon, selenologic and seismologic evidence of an initially totally molten moon, geophysical constraints on lunar composition, random sampling of a layered intrusion, chronologic and isotopic systematics of lunar highland rocks, the early evolution of the Moon as inferred from mare basaltic liquids mineralogy and petrology of the pristine rocks, compositional relationship of the pristine nonmare rocks to the highland soils and breccias, ferroan anosthositic norite, early lunar igneous history, compositional variation in ferroan anosthsites, macro and microsegregation in a solidifying lunar magma ocean, nickel in olivines and parent magmas of lunar pristine rocks, identification of regional deposits of lunar pristine rocks from orbital geochemical data, lunar and planetary compositions and early fractionation in the solar nebula, models of bulk moon composition, petrogenesis in a moon with a chondritic refractory lithophile pattern, a terrestrial analog of lunar ilmenite bearing cumulates, and the lunar magma ocean 13 years after Apollo 11 are abstracted.
