Herbert, List,
I did exactly the same, thus gave an Allende slice with an about 1+ cm diameter "dark inclusion" to a representative of the NH Museum in Paris about 3 years ago. He said the museum team would be happy to work more on.
As far as I remember, I did not require a personal answer but mentioned that I will be happy to read one day their related publication.
But we all know how long it can sometimes take for Science to get one small step forward...
By the way, all my best wishes to all. Should this new year 2005 direct (at least) one small rock from space to everyone's backyard! Many trades in perspective!

I recently donated two pieces of Allende to the Natural History Museum in Vienna: One had a featureless dark inclusion looking similar to the one seen in Rob's NWA 3118 slice featured in the 2004 December 1 "Rocks from Space Picture of the Day", and the other one had a inclusion looking silmilar to the "chondrule fild" in the Hupe's NWA3118 slice. Still, the researchers said that this is a "dark inclusion", and did not call it CM or CO xenolith. Any- way, they are working on it either.
