    Description: Lunar samples 72415 and 15418 have complex microstructures that indicate a series of fracturing and healing events. Both samples contain relatively few open microcracks but many sealed and healed microcracks. Dunite 72415 contains abundant healed cracks that formed tectonically, symplectic intergrowths spatially and probably genetically related to microcracks, and a cataclastic matrix that has been extensively sintered. Metamorphosed breccia 15418 contains many post-metamorphic healed cracks, large shock induced cracks that have been sealed with glass, and a few younger, thin, open shock induced cracks.

    Description: Differential strain analysis and scanning electron microscopy are employed to study the microcracks produced in a granite block by shock waves from a hypervelocity impact. The anisotropy of the pre-shock cracks appears to control the orientations of the microcracks. Over the range 2 to 20 kbar, total crack porosity proves to be linearly related to shock pressure. The effect of the peak shock pressure on the width and median closure pressure of the crack spectra is also investigated. The results of the microcrack study may be useful in interpreting lunar samples.

    Description: Differential strain analysis and petrographic microscopy are discussed, and lunar rock studies which use these techniques are reported. Many cracks are present that were produced by nonshock processes in addition to the abundant shock-induced cracks. The crack spectra of lunar samples differ significantly from the spectra for shocked terrestrial rocks in that the lunar samples have very broad distributions of crack closure pressures while shocked terrestrial rocks have sharply peaked distributions with most cracks closing at pressures below 0.5 kbar. The difference may be attributed to either the effects of multiple shock events or the effects of confinement on the response of the rock to shock.
