The first inventory of mineralized zones was carried out in detail in 1938, followed by mining by the French until 1990 through two cooperatives. The workers lived in a village next to the mine.



Inside the mine's galleries were people of the tribes of the region who worked in very difficult and dangerous working conditions.



Nowadays, there is an entire village totally abandoned in the Mfis Mine, which can be visited when one crosses the whole region near Merzouga.



From the top of the hill you have fantastic views of the village, its white mosque and the Erg Chebbi Dunes in the background.
