【 摘 要 】

Based on comparison of distributions of determined elements in soil and attic dust two natural and two man-made (anthropogenic) geochemical associations were discovered in Meža valley. First natural geochemical association (Al-Ba-Ce-Co-K-La-Li-Na-Nb-Rb-Sc-Th-Ti-V) is influenced mainly by weathering of metamorphic rocks, the second (Ca-Mg)was determinate on area of carbonate rock outcrops. The man-made associations are a result of lead production (Ag-As-Cd-Cu-Hg-Mo-Pb-S-Sb-Sn-Zn) and iron production (Co-Cr-Cu-Fe-Mn-Mo-Ni-W). Based on soil comparison, critical level of heavy metals inattic dust were considered.
