What about this light-yellow points on crust

It can be just sahara dust inside of regmaglyptes or inclusions. This still
can be silicate iron. Its little difficult to see from outside. I just dont
want to make states. It should be seen under loup.

So then we have only few oriented meteorites in the world with Adamana and
Baszkowka on the "nose cone" side.
OK, lets say its specimen with orientation instead of oriented specimen.
Here You have some of rollover lipping

Not soo perfect but they are here.

thats perfect oriented. With the same thinking, specimen with 95% of crust
we can't name as complete specimen :)

Lol, ok :D
I have no provision from Aziz. I just defend my conviction (right or false).
