Not sure why this is happening.  Any chance you can reproduce it using one
of the test datasets on yt-project.org/data?

This is happening because, as the error indicates, you can't combine mesh
and particle quantities in a cut_region (like a clump is).  The
total_mass() quantity returns the total mass in particles and gas, so
that's what's triggering the error. I bet this would work if you asked for
the total gas mass only. Of course, that would only work if
clump['cell_mass'] returned something sensible.
