The most common white inclusion you will find in meteorites is a CAI, or
calcium-aluminum inclusion. Allende meteorites are notorious for being
chock-full of them. They are some of the first things that
(theoretically) crystallize out of the proto-stellar dust cloud, and are
regarded as being good indicators of what things were like way back then.
