Ahouli (or Aouli) is an abandoned mining village in central Morocco. Once one of the most important lead deposits in Morocco,[1][2][3] 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.[4] For more than ten years, thousands of illegal miners risked their lives in its galleries daily.[5][6]

The French company Penarroya operated the sites from 1928 to the 1960s,[7][8][9] employing hundreds of Moroccan workers[10][11][12] and producing tens of thousands of tons of lead annually, most of which was exported to France.[13][14]
