We are so sorry on the delay! We'll auto-pass the research attempt as an apology.
With enough testing and experimentation, you eventually discover that the chunk Wash was given is currently "filled" with an arcane residue. It's said that certain gems often connect planes of existence between each other, but this resonates with a specific aura that doesn't ping to any of the frequencies of the higher planes. Instead, it's internal resonance is exceedingly stable and, interestingly enough, feels made of the Prime Material plane itself.
At the time Sans undergoes this research, however, magic is rather dulled and useless.
When it's restored, however, he can ascertain something insanely powerful within. A better name for this aluminadium chunk would be a "spell gem," and one of this size is indeed rare. It contains the power of a one time use 9th level spell.
This comes with an extreme caveat! Yes, it contains the all-powerful wish, but should that be the spell you wish to cast know that it can easily backfire on the person who casts it.
