Abstract : The concentration of heavy metals in the shallow topsoil (0–20 cm and 20–40 cm) from industrial areas in Slovakia
and Tajikistan was qualitatively and quantitatively analysed using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy analysis. Together
40 soil samples were taken from 20 sampling sites during summer 2015 and spring 2016. The main purpose of the research
was to identify the topsoil chemical properties near the aluminium plants and to assess the effects of the aluminium plants by
analysing contaminated soil in this particular area. Results showed that concentrations of heavy metals are significant in both
investigated areas. Considering both studied areas in Žiar nad Hronom (Slovakia) and Tursunzoda (Tajikistan), the highest
concentrations of Cd, Pb, Cu, Zn, Ni, Co, Cr, Fe and Al were recorded in Tursunzoda (Tajikistan)
