Haut-Ogooue is one of Gabon’s nine provinces. It is named after the Ogooue River. It covers an area of 36,547 sq km. The provincial capital is Franceville. One of its primary industries is mining, with manganese, gold and uranium being found in the region. The uranium-bearing mineral Francevillite takes its name from the primary city. It is the historical home of three cultures, the Obamba, Ndzabi and Teke. Like many regions in Africa, more traditional uses of the land have given way to rural migration to the larger cities. In August 2006, its soccer club won the Gabon Independence Cup. To the northeast, east, and south, Haut-Ogooue borders several regions of the Republic of the Congo.
