If the Apollo landings were fake, the how did NASA get the moon rocks right?

Question for Moon-landing deniers. If the Apollo missions in the 1960s–70s were faked, how do you explain that Apollo lunar rocks closely match samples returned decades later by independent missions (Soviet Luna probes in the 1970s and China’s Chang’e-5 in 2020)?
These samples, collected from different locations and by rival nations, yet they share the same mineralogy, trace-element chemistry, oxygen isotope ratios, and extreme lack of volatiles. Chang’e-5 sampled a region Apollo never visited, and its rocks still fit the geology profile found in the Apollo samples.
So the question isn’t “could NASA fake rocks?”, it’s how scientists in the 1960s could fabricate hundreds of kilograms of material whose detailed chemistry would later be independently confirmed, without a single contradiction, by countries with no incentive to protect a U.S. hoax. What explanation accounts for all of that at once?
I'll hang up and listen...

The deniers claim they are fake, manufactured, or from meteors. Your point will change no deniers' opinion.

The moon isn't real.
Surprisingly, the moon rocks are.

Well, if they were real, they'd be made of cheeze, right?

If you accept the premise that the moon landings are fake (which is of course idiotic), then its quite a lot easier to say "Here is a moon rock"

Pffft those are volcanic pumice stones spray painted moon gray baw.

The rocks would never survive the trip thru the Van Allen radiation belt..

I always appreciate peoples efforts to confront the deniers, but it's not going to do anything. They could take a field trip to the Apollo landing site and would still think it's fake. It's become more about their identity as a denier than anything else.

You could take all of the Moon hoax people, fly them to the Moon, show them the bases of the lunar module at all six landing sites, and they'll just shrug and say they were unmanned and placed there by NASA last week. There is no changing their minds.

They wouldn’t have survived some Van Halen cranked up to 11 either

FWIW, I am certain we went. I am not so sure some of the videos are real, but I also don't really care that much about that part of it. If it was all fake, there is no way that many people involved would not leak something.

There are also reflectors and other equipment they left up there. Even the Chinese have verified it
