WHY & WHAT• Why LHT simulants? If we put a base at thepoles, the base will be on a highlands typeregolith and therefore highlands regolithsimulants are needed.• We used an average Apollo 16 regolith targetcomposition.• The bulk of our material came from the StillwaterComplex in Montana which has long beenproposed as a source of materials for highlandsimulants.
