Abstract
AN investigation by X-ray powder methods of the nickel–boron and the cobalt–boron systems has revealed the existence of two isomorphous borides, Ni3B and Co3B. A nickel boride with a boron content about 25 atom per cent has previously been reported by Andersson and Kiessling1, but no reports on Co3B seem to have been published.
