The first black hole fusion detected by LIGO tracked the fusion of two 
stellar mass black holes, of 29 and 36 solar masses to create a 62 solar 
mass black hole.

The missing three solar masses got used up creating the gravity waves we 
detected. Mass-energy does seem to be conserved, but you can convert 
some mass into energy. The mass defect you see as you move up the 
periodic table reflects what happens in main-stream stars as they fuse 
hydrogen into heavier elements, and spit out photons in the process.
