I hope everyone had a prosperous and joyful Holiday Season.

I was wondering something:

Do lunar meteorites ever contain crystals?? Or are the just crushed rock and lunar soil compacted together?? From what I've been able to find is that any basalt type rock containing white feldspar that are crystals or if there is opaque crystals (ilmenite or magnetite...etc.), then it cannot be lunar, is this true?? Are there some cases where you could find crystals within a lunar rock?

Much Thanks and everyone have a happy New Year.

Greg S. ?
