We have made Be-B measurements in six calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) (mostly type B inclusions) from CV chondrites and compared them to Al-Mg measurements. All CAIs show 10-B excesses in melilite that are correlated with Be/B ratios. The initial 10-Be/9-Be ratio inferred from the correlation line is 6.2 x 10-4. In contrast to the Be-B system in melilite, the Al-Mg system in anorthite is disturbed. This is probably due to B diffusion in melilite being slow compared with Mg diffusion in anorthite. This suggests that Be-B chronology may be useful for measuring time differences of high-temperature (melting, condensation, etc.) events in the early solar system.
