Grains of rhonite have been discovered in magmatic inclusions in augite grains of the lunar regolith from Mare Crisium, returned to Earth by the Russian Luna 24 spacecraft. These rhonite grains are up to 8 gm long, pleochroic from tan to dark brown, and associated with ulvospinel and silica-rich glass. Electron microprobe analysis gives a composition near end-member ferroan rhonite: (Ca1.9Mn0.0Na0.1) (Fe-4.5(2+) Mg0.1Al0.3Cr0.0)Ti-1.0(Si4.0Al2.0)O-20. The Raman spectrum of these grains is like those of terrestrial rhonites, and distinct from titanian amphiboles. Compositionally, rhonite plus silica plus water or halogens (F, Cl) is equivalent to titanian amphibole plus pyroxene, so the presence of rhonite in lunar basaltic rock is consistent with the known low abundance of volatiles in the Moon. When calibrated, mineral reactions involving rhonite and titanian amphibole may provide quantitative constraints on fugacities of water, F, and Cl in basaltic magmas from the Moon and other planetary bodies.
