Commentary
The affix अण् with the augment षुक् comes in the sense of 'its modification' after the words त्रपुन् and जतुन्।
This debars अञ् 4.3.139. As, त्रपुणो विकारः = त्रापुषम्; जातुषम् 'modification of tin and lac.' In these words denoting non-organic beings, the sense of अवयव is not denoted by the affix.
