Answer 4

You are correct. The rulers of Ghana became wealthy by controlling the gold supply. The other options mentioned (mining and selling salt, developing iron-working technology, and leading raids against nearby kingdoms) were also important economic activities in ancient Ghana, but controlling the gold supply was the primary source of wealth for the ruling elites. The Almoravids were a later group that conquered Ghana, but they did not contribute to its rise to power and wealth.
