Solar System 5 B 24   7.2     34   Problems with contamination are paramount for this particular element, the most reliable data according to Anders & Ebihara 1982 is that of Curtis et al. 1980. Boron abundances in Curtis et al. were determined by counting the 478 keV ?-ray of Li^7 from the reaction B^10(n, s)Li^7 which was used for 82 chondrite samples. The actual value for B abundance was derived without regard to Chondrite class in Curtis et al. which some have stated to be dangerous due to the B volatility during nebular condensation.

Solar System 35 Br 9.2             Anders & Ebihara 1982 Cameron 1982
Solar System 35 Br 11.8   2.242     18   The inconsistencies amongst vaious sources to produce similar Bromine abundances makes the aquisition of a valid average problematic. The lack of consistency on the part of Bromine abundances is mainly due to the differing views on hydrothermal transport of the meteorite parent bodies, thus leading to the analysis of Br abundances based on other meteorite classes that are volatile rich, but have not been hydrothermally altered. The Br, In and Cd ratios in C3's and E4's are used for their relative equivalence to solar system ratios, therein leading to mean Br abundances. Anders & Ebihara 1982

Solar System 53 I 0.9   0.189     11   Similarly to Bromine, Iodine abundances were measured via C3's and E4's due to the high level of variance in I abundances from one meteorite to the next. This high variance of I is believed to be caused by the same hydrothermal transport in the meteorite parent body as was found in the Bromine analyses. Using E4's and C3's is a more reliable route to estimating I solar system abundances since they are hydrothermally unaltered meteorites and are rich in other volatiles such as In, Cd, F and Br which correlate well with Iodine. C1's and C2's were also used to counteract the relatively low amounts of data on I/Cd ratios. Anders & Ebihara 1982

The value was found to be lower than that found for L-chondrites, yet agreed closely with derived values for Rh in H-chondrites.
