Abstract The South Pole‐Aitken (SPA) Basin, the Moon's largest impact structure, holds key insights into lunar evolution, prompting the Chang'e‐6 mission to return first samples for ground‐truth verification. Analysis of over 6,000 grains from the Chang'e‐6 soil returned from the SPA Basin reveals a composition dominated by clinopyroxene (26.5–32.9 vol.%), plagioclase (29.9–33.2 vol.%) and glass (32.4–36.2 vol.%), with low orthopyroxene and olivine contents. This indicates the Chang'e‐6 landing
