> By atomic composition, the most abundant element found on the Moon is oxygen. It composes 60% of the Moon's crust by weight, followed by 16-17% silicon, 6-10% aluminum, 4-6% calcium, 3-6% magnesium, 2-5% iron, and 1-2% titanium.
You have oxygen. You have aluminum. You can now make a solid rocket. There's some magnesium there too if you want to use that instead.
It's kind of hilarious that the hardest thing to find in the inner solar system, off Earth (and, of course, the Sun), isn't precisely water but hydrogen.
Which you can't. So that's a no for the moon, but something from orbit could make sense.
Have a staging area and just accumulate tons of fuel from multiple launches.
