Fresh, broken surfaces may look very similar but as soon as
you look at cut and polished slices, they look conspicuously
different:

=> the Bensour texture is patchy, cloudy and FeNi sparse
=> Benguerir looks more grainy, sprinkled, or speckled
   and has more finely disseminated FeNi than Bensour

My three Bensours
+ one Benguerir
