Short summary
When detecting the light element boron in solid materials with, in part, considerably lower concentrations of boron than present in natural tourmalines by using the electron microprobe, irregularities become visible in the analyses. This was for the first time experienced in synthetic diamond that was contaminated with boron to achieve a blue color. With this work, one can check if boron analyses are reasonable, and if not, one can correct them.
