Widespread ilmenite contributions to the surface water cycle in lunar Procellarum KREEP Terrane

Abstract The role of widespread ilmenite in lunar mare regions in the abundance and diurnal variations of surficial OH/H2O remains controversial. Here, we report the water content and hydrogen isotopes in the rims of lunar ilmenites from Chang’e-5 soil samples using an ion microprobe. Ilmenite rims...
