In recent years the question of the unusual behavior of projectile fragments formed in the interaction of relativistic heavy ions with Cu nuclei was studied using nuclear chemistry techniques. As targets, various Cu disk arrangements were used. It is not the intention of this contribution to give a complete account of the entire procedure and its results. However, a few more recent experimental findings were presented, some of them even in a preliminary form. The discussion about the entire problem which might be part of the so-called "anomalon" phenomenon, as observed in the field of relativistic heavy ion interactions with a few other techniques such as nuclear emulsions or bubble chambers is interested. 4 ref.--AA
