    The sun isn't a mass of incandecent gas! It's a miasma of incandescent plasma!

    While you are indeed correct and do have your facts straight, the process you are referring to, the r-process or rapid neutron capture, does not create Boron, Lithium, or Beryllium. The reason that these elements are so scarce is that, during all known processes, these elements are unstable and quickly shift to a heavier element.

    for most stars the fusion reactions inside them are only able to smash stuff together untill you get to iron. any elements heavier than that just wont fuse. all the other elements are formed during supernovas when big stars internally implode and then explode, creating firces and temperatures much greater then what youd otherwise have thus creating all these heavier elements.
