"Lunar Geochemistry and Chronology" session at the upcoming Goldschmidt Conference 2009:

Lunar geochemistry and chronology have been revitalized in recent years by Clementine, Lunar Prospector and SMART-1 missions, the current Kaguya and Chang'e-1, and future (Chandrayaan-1 and LRO) global data obtained from orbit; samples that represent previously unsampled/uninvestigated compositional domains (e.g. meteorites); and new and improved analytical techniques that allow analyses of the smaller Apollo and Luna Samples. The aim of this session is to further explore the synergies between the different data sets for the evolving understanding of the formation and early differentiation of the Moon, lunar mantle and crust evolution, and lunar (and Earth) impact history.
