The layer of debris on the moon is called regolith. Regolith is made up of dust, soil, and broken rock fragments that have accumulated on the moon's surface over millions of years.

Regolith
Regolith is a layer of loose material covering solid rock. Examples of this are dust, soil, broken rock, and other materials.
The region of the Moon covered by a thin layer of regolith is likely the older one. This is because a thick layer of regolith typically indicates more recent impacts and volcanic activity, which continuously disrupts and re-covers the surface. In contrast, areas with thin regolith have experienced less geological activity and are often more ancient, preserving older features. Thus, the thickness of regolith can serve as an indicator of the relative age of lunar surfaces.
Water is not part of the composition of lunar regolith. Lunar regolith consists of a mixture of fine dust, rocks, and other materials found on the moon's surface, but lacks significant amounts of water.
