Nonmare volcanism on the Moon: Photometric evidence for the presence of evolved silicic materials

•Silicic volcanic regions on the Moon are highly reflective.•Reflectance variations can be explained by felsic mineral components.•Pyroclastics are likely present at the Compton–Belkovich Volcanic Complex.•Compton–Belkovich reflectance values approach those of pure anorthosite.•Andesite or dacite may exist at some silicic regions.
