High-resolution, high-signal-to-noise (〈S/N〉 = 85) spectra have been obtained for five stars – CD–2417504, CD–38245, CS 22172–002, CS 22885–096, and CS 22949–037 – having [Fe/H] . –3.5 according to previous lower S/N material. LTE model-atmosphere techniques are used to determine [Fe/H] and relative abundances, or their limits, for some 18 elements, and to constrain more tightly the early enric...
