To be faaiirr... The 1974 RAM board has control logic circuitry there, too. The modern RAM is controlled by a part in the system's CPU. You may compare the black shielded section to the modern RAM!

Looks like decode logic. Core memory doesn’t need refresh like DRAM. It does need to be restored after reading, but it’s hard to say if this board implements that step or the CPU.
