Summary edit

Description

Apollo 17 Hasselblad image from film magazine 145/D - EVA-2, Post-EVA-3 & Orbit
This photo was used in Figure 5-15 of the Apollo 17 Preliminary Science Report (SP-330, 1973), which has the following caption:

Basalt block at station 5 on the southern rim of Camelot Crater showing foliation caused by the parallel orientation of vesicle concentrations. Hammer is 35.5 cm long.

The text of the report refers to the figure:

The block fields concentrated near and in the large craters in the Camelot-Steno area allowed a rather comprehensive investigation of the basalts. The blocks are largely massive, tan to pinkish-gray, coarse-grained, ilmenite basalts generally having a coarsely vesicular texture. Isolated examples of egg-sized vesicles were observed near the crater Bronte. Locally, there is a strong foliation formed by the occurrence of parallel parting planes or fractures (fig. 5-15). The blocks on the rim of Camelot Crater at station 5 showed parallel layers defined by differences in vesicle concentrations.
