The cross-section of 8
Li(
,n)11
B has been measured at 
= 1.25 MeV to be 
mb using novel techniques, i.e. a 8
Li radioactive ion beam produced at the tandem in Catania in combination with a 4
He gas cell and a 
neutron detector. The value is in fair agreement with previous work strengthening the model of inhomogeneous Big Bang nucleosynthesis.
