The town of Poum (Latitude: 20° 13' 59 south, longitude: 164° 1' 23 east) is located in the far northwest, located on the southern part of Banare Bay, with Mouac Island just offshore. GeographyThe Poum massif south of Poum and Titch rises to 414 m and is rich in nickel. Other minerals like cobalt have been mined out. The hills around Poum are bare of trees and distinctively rose and red-tinged. EconomyThere is one boarding middle school near Poum village. The Kanak population pursue diverse subsistence activities, sometimes combined with paid work. Tourists can stay at a western style hotel complex, the Malabou Beach hotel on Nehoue Bay, which is owned by the Northern Province corporation, Grands Hôtels - it has 35 employees. There are also two tourist cottages (Golone and Poingam), a campsite (Pagop) and home stays are also possible.[1] Fishing is still pursued mainly by the islanders, especially from Tiabet. The Poum nickel mine is not exploited at full capacity and has about thirty employees.[2] Agriculture is practiced, and there is some European-owned cattle ranching. References1. ^Kowasch M., S.P.J.
