KUH-I-ZA’AFAR ANLt}—
The different mountain ranges lying to the left of the road from Radkan

KUH-I-ZAR—
A village and mountain in the Turud sub-district of Shahrud-Bustam
about 60 miles south of Damghan and 70 south of Shahrud. It is generally
reached from Damghan via Frat and Panj Kuh, the direct road from Shah
rud having to go through a Kavir. Some years ago a European official in
Persian employ was sent here and found that the alluvial soil all along the
northern slope of the Kuh-i-Zar range, which has a length of 26 miles, was
auriferous. The only village there now is Kuhsar, with 15 houses. Some
sand was washed and yielded -000002 to -000003 of gold. On account
of the great scarcity of water there any exploitation of the auriferous
sand would result in a loss. Kuh-i-Zar means “ the gold mountain.”—
