Experimental evidence for a shallow cumulate remelting origin of lunar high-titanium mare basalts
Abstract High-titanium mare basalts were among the earliest rocks to be returned from the Moon, but key aspects of their formation remain enigmatic. Here we show twenty partial remelting experiments conducted on three bulk compositions based on shallow ilmenite-bearing cumulate compositions from exp...
