Description
Iraqis from the village of Mamlaha, named after it's production of salt from natural ponds, which villagers have been filling from a nearby spring for over 200 years, work the salt fields in Iraq's eastern Kurdish province of Sulaimaniyah. Some 300-400 tons of salt are produced from the village every year during the summer months when locals collect salt from the ponds after the water evaporates. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
