Valleys are unusual because other features such as craters or rays (ejecta from impacts) intersect them. They are thought to have formed by ancient lava flows, collapsed lava tubes or geological faults. They are sometimes labelled as rilles - cracks or clefts on the lunar surface notably near maria.
Rille, any of various valleys or trenches on the surface of the Moon. The term was introduced by early telescopic observers—probably by the German astronomer Johann Schroeter—to denote such lunar features. The word rima (from Latin, ‘fissure’) is often used for the same kind of features.
