The aim of this paper was to determine the concentration of heavy metals in dust samples by the method of analysis by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) and to assess the degree of pollution of the studied areas. The dust samples studied and subjected to analytical analyzes were collected from the vicinity of industrial areas and urban areas of localities in the Jiu Valley, a monoindustrial area. The main heavy metals determined were: Cu, Zn, Pb, Ni, Cr, Co etc. Dust particles depending on their origin can be inorganic or organic. The samples were collected from the urban areas and from the vicinity of the industrial areas.
