Processing of lunar cores includes: (1) careful dissection for study of loose fines, and (2) stabilization of the residue by peeling and impregnation. The newly developed technique for preparing thin peels of lunar cores requires application of the methacrylate adhesive to a backing strip, before taking the peel. To ensure complete impregnation of the very fine, dry lunar soil, the low-viscosity epoxy, Araldite 506, is gently flowed onto the core, under vacuum.
