Cosmic rays have surprising amounts of antimatter. Is dark matter responsible?

So, how is it that gravimetric chemical analysis agrees with electrochemical and mass spectrometry analyses. Each adds the analyzed mass to 100%. This should not be possible if there is a component that has gravity properties, but lacks electromagnetic properties.
What physics makes this possible? I am only a retired chemist, but this apparent contradiction needs to be addressed.
 
If two particles have the same mass and speed, and collide from 180° different directions, their net momentum will be zero. If they anihillate and then emit a single photon, it will have a non-zero momentum. Momentum would not be conserved. Two photons allows conservation of momentum.
