Title	Letter from Thomas Gold to Dr P B Price, Department of Physics, University of California, Berkeley, California
Date	9 October 1973
Description	Encloses the albedo figuresl Have a few points from Fleischer, but not enought to see whether there is a correlation of low albedo and high track density. He thinks most tracks were impregnated before the stuff fell on the Moon, and then there would be no case for such a correlation. But he cannot be sure about that. At any rate, the idea of shuffling the dick of cards often enough to put each card on the top (for 10,000 years) does not work. A carefully sedimented material where layer after layer is added might do the trick. They will be glad to get Price's track density figures for this core, an they will send him the final graphs assembled from all the points, If he can specify also something about the variance in the track density at each level they woudl also be interested. List of Apollo 15 surface and core samples results attached.
