  We have been exploring large spectroscopic databases such as SDSS to search
for unique stars with extremely low iron content with the goal of extracting
detailed information from the early phases of the Galaxy. We recently
identified two extremely iron-poor dwarf stars J0815+4729 (Aguado et al. 2018a)
and J0023+0307 (Aguado et al. 2018b) from SDSS/BOSS database and confirmed from
high-quality spectra taken with ISIS and OSIRIS spectrographs at the 4.2m WHT
and 10.4m GTC telescopes, respectively, located in La Palma (Canary Islands,
Spain). We have also acquired high-resolution spectroscopy with UVES at 8.2m
VLT telescope (Paranal, ESO, Chile) and HIRES at the 10m KeckI telescope (Mauna
Kea, Hawaii, USA), uncovering the unique abundance pattern of these stars, that
reveal e.g. the extreme CNO abundances in J0815+4729 with ratios [X/Fe]~$> 4$
(Gonz\'alez Hern\'andez et al. 2020). In addition, we are able to detect Li at
the level of the lithium plateau in J0023+0307 (Aguado et al. 2019a), whereas
we are only able to give a Li upper-limit 0.7 dex below the lithium plateau in
J0815+4729, thus adding more complexity to the cosmological lithium problem.
New upcoming surveys such as WEAVE, 4MOST and DESI will likely allow us to
discover new interesting extremely iron-poor stars, that will certainly
contribute to our understanding of the Early Galaxy, and the properties of the
first stars and the first supernovae.
