Description

This dataset includes compositions of major elements (measured by EPMA) and trace elements (measured by LA-ICP-MS) of small-sized glass beads from Chang'e-5 lunar soil. This dataset is supporting document for the manuscript entitled as "Compositional heterogeneity of small-sized glass beads from Chang'e-5 lunar soil" submitted to Journal of Petrology. Over 50 spheres of glass beads from the Chang’e-5 lunar soil, mostly smaller than 50 μm in diameter, were investigated for micro-texture and chemical composition, revealing significant diversity.
