Abstract
Boulder 1 as a whole can be considered a complex polymict breccia consisting of lithic and breccia clasts seated in a matrix that ranges from friable and poorly sintered to densely welded. Only two of the four samples collected from boulder 1, Station 2 have been examined in detail: 72255 and 72275. Of the remaining two, only two undocumented thin sections from 72235 have been studied, while none from 72215 has been examined. Sample 72275 was collected as representative of the boulder matrix, whereas the other three samples were thought to be large clasts.
