Kilgore describes the stuff as a cumulate olivine norite with regolith
breccia - since he has the mian mass of 773 i assume this desingation is
comming form someone in the know - AFIK its simply a matter of what
convention you wish to use. ie, is that rock an L7 or a primitive
achonderite :)

Dear List,
Am I missing something or has the classification been changed on NWA 773?
NWA 773 is a basaltic regolith breccia with clasts of cumulate olivine
gabbro not a Norite. Gabbro clasts have been found in other Lunaites
including NWA 3136 but that does not make them Norites.
A little confused,
Adam
