Zouérat (Arabic: الزويرات) is the largest town in northern Mauritania and is the capital of Tiris Zemmour. It lies at the eastern end of the Mauritania Railway to Nouadhibou and is a centre for iron ore mining, including the mines of Fderîck. The freight trains which take the iron ore to the coast can be as much as 3 km long, reputedly the longest in the world.
