Abstract The tidal breakup of a neutron star near a black hole is examined. A simple model for the interaction is calculated, and the results show that the amount of neutron-star material ejected into the interstellar medium may be significant. Using reasonable stellar statistics, the estimated quantity of ejected material is found to be roughly comparable to abundance of r-process material.
