The reddish NWA 17405 end cut (center) is quite unique. Scientists believe it gets its color from aqueous alteration... ancient water on the moon! The stone is also a fragmental breccia, which constitutes the main mass of the recovery.

The dark NWA 14577 end cut (right) is a fragmental breccia; a mixture of broken lunar rock and glass fused together by impacts. They likely come from highland regolith where light clasts are mixed into a darker matrix.
