Spectroscopic abundances of s- and r-process enriched very metal-poor stars are interpreted as the result of mass transfer in a binary system from an AGB companion assuming an initial composition of the parental cloud pre-enriched in r elements. The spectroscopic determination of [Na/Fe], [Mg/Fe] and [ls/Fe] permits an estimate of the initial AGB stellar mass, while a value [Zr/Nb] ≈ 0 is a nuclear indicator of an extrinsic AGB in a binary system.
