Abstract
In this article, we aimed to analyse and evaluate the alkaline metals (such as Li, Cs, and Rb) enrichment in the lacustrine and volcanoclastic sediments of the Erdőbénye valley basin of north eastern Hungary using a field spectrometer and ICP-MS analysis methods in order to define a potential explo-ration target. The results are ambiguous and the consequences are summarized in this article. Alkaline metals such as Li, Cs, and Rb are essential for the 5G technology, production of batteries, various ceramics and glass products, as well as other crucial application areas in the current world. As a result, the demand for those elements is skyrocketing on a world-wide. A potential target area was selected to test the applicability of LIBS field spectrometer in this segment of industrial mineralization.
