The two most valuable minerals are salt and gold. salt was as precious as gold and diamonds back then, to the ancient Africans. People needed salt everyday to stay alive because most food include salt. They also use the salt to preserve the food. Salt was very rare back then. Gold as you know is a precious metal which is an unrenewable resource, and as you know, they will RUN out!!!!!!! They also traded gold for salt, cooking utensils, cloth, jewelry, copper, and weapons.
