(A) Average An % (100*Ca/[Ca+Na+K]) in plagioclase vs. Mg # (100*Mg/[Mg+Fe]) in pyroxene for FAN hand samples (mineral chemistry data from32). Background fields mafic mineral Mg # and plagioclase An % for main Apollo highland rock suites are taken from Yamaguchi et al.65. (B) Average An % vs. Mg # in plagioclase for clasts and mineral fragments within Apollo 16 breccias. (C) [Eu/Sm]CI vs. Na ppm in plagioclase for clasts within lunar meteorite NWA 2995. Background fields for B and C have been made using data reported in refs 7, 8, 31, 66, 67.
