7 North Africa is mainly desert; therefore, it is very dry and forces the people of the land to live close to rivers, an oasis, or coastal areas.

8 North Africa has three main geographic features: the Sahara, the Atlas mountains in the west, and the Nile river and delta in the east. Atlas mountains

10 Climate, Water, and Resources. Coastal North Africa has a Mediterranean climate, with hot summers and mild, damp winters. Along the Atlas chain, the mountains trap moisture- laden clouds blowing south from the Mediterranean Sea. The moisture falls as rain on the mountains' northern slopes. As a result, these slopes and the coastal area between them and the sea are well-watered and fertile, compared with the more arid conditions on the southern side of the mountains. Similar conditions exist in Libya, where cliffs and low mountains separate Tripolitania and Cyrenaica from the desert interior.

11 Some of the minerals that can be found are phosphate, iron ore, silver, copper, lead, zinc, manganese, gold, salt, limestone and barytine. Other resources that can be found are gypsum, coal, petroleum and natural gas. copper leadgold limestone
