New methods are proposed for the determination of Mo, Ni, Co, and V in soils using high-resolution continuum source graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry with direct solid sampling. Cobalt and V were simultaneously determined, and different analytical lines of Ni and V were monitored to adjust sensitivity for each sample. Accuracy was checked by means of soil certified reference materials, and also by flame atomic absorption spectrometry as comparative technique. The results for Mo, Ni, Co, and V found by proposed methods were in agreement with certified values and with those obtained by the comparative technique at 95% confidence level. The concentrations found in different soil samples were in the ranges 0.19–1.84 mg kg− 1 (Mo), 9.2–22.7 mg kg− 1 (Ni), 1.1–10.7 mg kg− 1 (Co), and 35.6–426.1 mg kg− 1 (V). The relative standard deviations were in the ranges 3.2–10% (Mo), 2.8–9.8% (Ni), 4.0–9.2% (Co), and 1.2–8.0% (V). The limits of quantification for Mo, Ni, Co, and V were 0.027, 0.071, 0.15, and 1.43 ng, respectively.
