The study has also revealed that the Chang'e-6 lithic fragment samples are primarily composed of basalt, breccia, agglutinate, glasses and leucocrate.

研究还揭示，嫦娥六号岩石片样本主要由玄武岩、角砾岩、凝聚物、玻璃和白长石组成。

Percolating into empty cracks and cavities, such as those found in breccias, it creates flowstones.

渗透到空缝和空腔中，例如在角砾岩中发缝和空腔，它会产生流石。

In 1912 a man drilling a well for the town water supply reported bringing up a lot of strangely deformed rock, a crystalline clast breccia with a melt matrix, and overturned ejector flap, as it was later described in an official report.

1912 年，名男子为城镇供水系统钻了口井，报告说发了许多奇怪变形岩石、带有熔融基质屑角砾岩和翻转喷射器瓣，后来在官方报告中对此进行了描述。

The team now reckon the Member 4 breccia formed between 3.4m and 3.6m years ago, over a million years earlier than believed.

该团队在估计 Member 4 角砾岩形成于 340 万至 360 万年前，比人们认为早了 100 万年以上。

To test that idea, they directly dated the cave breccias in Members 2 and 4 using cosmogenic nuclide dating, which Dr Granger helped develop.

为了验证这个想法，他们使用格兰杰博士帮助开发宇宙成因核素测年法，直接对成员 2 和成员 4 中洞穴角砾岩进行了测年。

Using this method Dr Granger and colleagues determined, in 2015, that the breccia in Member 2 is 3.7m years old—1.5m years more ancient than originally thought.

使用这种方法，Granger 博士及其同事在 2015 年确定，成员 2 中角砾岩有 370 万年历史——比最初认为要古老 150 万年。

When a breccia-forming object falls into a cave, it finds itself shielded from cosmic rays, and the steady decay of its existing cosmogenic nuclides can be used to determine how long ago it fell in.

当形成角砾岩物体落入洞穴时， 它发自己免受宇宙射线影响， 并且其有宇宙成因核素稳定衰变可以用来确定它落入洞穴时间。
