Hi List,
Although shown here before:
Here is an other example of small scale "flow lines" originating from a rim:

Martin, McCartney, List,
I suggest that The lines on mt's Allende and Martin's Tazas are not
radiating but converging. I believe that the rim does not contain the
flow
lines but, in a sense, produces them. I see the lines as melt that has
come
around the edge of the meteorite and frozen in paths toward lower
pressure.
Oops! Did a bit of metal slosh out of Martin's fine bowl at the five
o'clock position?
Of course conditions have to be just right to produce this phenomenon.
Other possibilities are nothing, just a lip, spatter, a mass of froth and
maybe spikes.
This Chergach is not as nice but it might help make my case.

Hi MT,
Back in July of 2003, I posted a collection of pics of oriented irons
known then as Taza in my Accretion Desk article:
http://www.meteorite-times.com/Back_Links/2003/July/Accretion_Desk.htm
I highlighted a couple of fully lipped individuals also wondering how
such a feature could form. I believe it was Jim Tobin who suggested
that the iron was spinning like a wheel parallel to the direction of
travel and the lipping produced a "tire effect" around the surface
interior which, as is especially viewable in the specimen I nicknamed
"a bowl full of flowlines" seemed to have no directional orientation
in the usual way, and in fact, has much in common with the Allende pic
you posted.
Best,
Martin

This is an Allende. I'm not sure I understand the orientation signs I
see.
I see a star flow line pattern which indicates this side is windward. But
the lipping on the NW side hints the side is leeward. So I'm a bit
confused.
Any ideas on alternate interpretations?
