As part of the Apollo Next-Generation Sample Analysis (ANGSA) program, our Moon United team studied particles and soil samples from the 73001/2 drive tube to understand the lithologies at the sample site and provide constraints on the regolith age. We report the bulk composition, mineralogy, petrology, and noble-gas assays of 21 lunar particles and two soils. Our petrologic and noble-gas data constrain the origin and exposure and gardening history of the lunar regolith at the Apollo 17 site and thereby provide crucial context to the exposure history experienced by volatile and organic compounds in these samples.
