Answer:
on my opinion
Gold was important to the kingdoms of the Sahel because it was their source of power. Gold was extremely valuable to traders of Europe and the Middle East, so it provided a great deal of wealth to the trading centers of the Sahelian kingdoms. Most of the gold mines were located near the Senegal and Niger rivers.
