History
Ahouli is an abandoned mining village in central Morocco. Once one of the most important lead deposits in Morocco, the nearby Ahouli and Mibladen mines are now abandoned. It is located on a valley along upper Moulouya river, about 25 kilometers north from Midelt. For more than ten years, thousands of illegal miners risked their lives in its galleries daily.
