Those "C-chondrite" clasts do look like ones seen in some R chondrites to me, like with NWA 2943, which was discussed on the list a while back. Like the ones in this slice, for instance http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320027035483 (sold for $142.69 a gram? When the seller still has slices on his web site for $15 a gram? Damn!).
