Chang'e-5 Lunar Troctolitic Clast Mineral Compositions

Supplementary information for the manuscript titled 'An Impact-related origin for low-Ca pyroxene in a Chang’e-5 lunar troctolitic clast'. The dataset contains two Excel tables with mineral composition data in weight percent and atomic percent from TEX-EDX analysis. It was authored by Bai and last updated on figshare in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing mineral composition variations based on weight percent data.
• Studying pyroxene crystal chemistry based on atomic percent quantification.
• Investigating impact-related petrogenesis in lunar samples based on the exotic clast data.

Strengths

• Data is directly linked to a specific peer-reviewed manuscript, providing research context.
• Contains two distinct analytical tables: one for bulk mineralogy and one for pyroxene-specific atomic structure.

Limitations

• Dataset is very small at 88.0 KB, indicating limited scope.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
