Abarak, Niger: an oasis town on the edge of the Sahara

Abarak (Arlit) is an important town in the Agadez region of northern Niger, located on the southern edge of the Sahara Desert, about 900 kilometers from the capital city of Niamey. As one of the core areas of Niger's mining industry, the surrounding area is rich in uranium and was once a key supplier of raw materials to France's nuclear energy industry. The economy is dominated by mining and a small amount of oasis agriculture, and the inhabitants, many of whom are Tuareg and other ethnic groups, have retained a traditional nomadic culture. Although the town is located in an arid zone, it has become a transit point for desert trade and goods by virtue of its position as a hub on the Niger-Algeria highway, and its unique desert landscape and mining history make it both geographically and economically strategic.
