It's a little like asking "how can I tell, from my typewritten manuscript, which page of the printed book a given word is going to end up on?". The answer is "you can't, and why would you want to?".

I already gave up. Regarding your question "why would I want to":
I would like to get a list of my highlights grouped under the corresponding chapter title. So if I highlight the most important passages of a book, I can could automatically get a meaningfull summary of the book once I am done. Right now I just get an unsorted collection of highlights in the myclipping file. So my idea was to extract chapter names and positions from the mobi file and to write a small script that would to the chapter grouping using the positions stored in the myclippings file.
But I do not see a way of doing this ...
