ABSTRACT: The article is focused on the application of Energy dispersive micro X-ray fuorescence spectroscopy as a specifc method to
determine the contents of potentially toxic elements and its spread in plant tissues. As a model species, Quercus spp. were
selected. In order to compare the obtained results with previous research, four well-described abandoned Cu-deposits were
selected for sampling: Ľubietová (Slovakia), Libiola and Caporciano (Italy), and São Domingos (Portugal). The results of
micro X-ray fuorescence spectrometry confrm the irregular contamination of Quercus spp. by potentially toxic elements.
The level of contamination is the highest predominantly in the root cortex, where is also the highest Ca contents (with
exception of São Domingos). At Ľubietová and Caporciano, high Ni content was described in branches cortex, in branches
mesoderm also Fe, Cu and Zn. At the same time, the inhibition infuence of Ca was also confrmed regarding the input of
these elements into plants.
