this is incorrect. The scientists originally classifying 2965 and others
thought the 'blue' and 'brown' material were unique finds - but several
specimins were recovered that hsowed both lithologies in the same piece.
While such examples are EXCEEDINGLY rare they DO exist. See:
http://www.meteoritestudies.com/protected_NWA2965.HTM as an example. Better
examples exist but i dont have any pics i can link handy.

I may not be a scientist or offical classifyer or anything - but i have
personally pawed through over half a ton of this material making me the
worlds foremost expert on it's apearance...
