Abstract

The ability to now make measurements of Be and B as well as put constraints on \lisix abundances in metal-poor stars has led to a detailed reexamination of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis in the $A\groughly6$ regime. The nuclear reaction network has been significantly expanded with many new rates added. It is demonstrated that although a number of $A>7$ reaction rates are poorly determined, even with extreme values chosen, the standard homogeneous model is unable to produce significant yields (Be/H and B/H $ 7$. However models that fit the $A\le7$ abundances still seem to have difficulty in obtaining significant $A>7$ yields.
