"Mfouati lies about 55km west of Mindouli and is dominated by a large limestone hill with managanese wad filled fractures that were mined for primarily for lead,and zinc with some subordinate copper. I have verified cerussite, wulfenite, azurite, malachite, chrysocolla, hemimorphite, smithsonite from this locality. Apparently there are a number of small prospects within a 5km radius of M'fouati which furnish wulfenite crystals but I was not able to verify these occurrences."
