Zircons from the Apollo 14 polymict breccias 14304,14305, and 14321 crystallized from highly incompatible-trace-element enriched sources over an extended period of early lunar history from 4.4 to 4.0 Ga. These zircons contain the least radiogenic (176)Hf/(177)Hf yet observed in lunar samples, consistent with their source magmas containing a component (KREEP) that evolved during chemical differentiation of a global lunar magma ocean. The initial (176)Hf/(177)Hf isotopic compositions of the zircons as a function of their crystallization ages suggest separation of the KREEP source, and thus crystallization of the lunar magma ocean, by similar to 4.48 Ga to no later than 4.38 Ga.
