The Zarrineh River^[1] ({{lang-fa|زرّینه‌رود |lit=golden river}} {{transl|fa|Zarrineh-Rud, Zarriné-Rūd, Zarrinehrood}}) is a river in Kurdistan Province and West Azarbaijan Province, Iran.^[2]

It is 302 km long, arising in the Zagros Mountains of Kurdistan Province south of Saqqez, where it is also known as the Jaqatoo River (Jaghatu Chay).^[3][4][5][6]

It's real name is Jegatoo, a well known name among local residences over centuries. But by changing government in Pahlavi age most Turkish names omitted and turned to Persian.

Course

The Zarrineh River flows northward and is dammed at Sadd-e Kurosh-e Kabir (Dam of Cyrus the Great)^[7][8] at the border with West Azarbaijan, producing a large reservoir. There is a power plant there.^[3] The river continues north and slightly west past the cities of Shahin Dezh, Kashavar and Miandoab and into Lake Urmia. Although it is perennial, unlike many of the streams in the Urmia Basin, its flow is still markedly seasonal with a discharge into Lake Urmia ranging from {{Convert|500|m3|acre·ft}} per second to only {{Convert|10|m3|acre·ft}} per second at the end of the dry season.^[1]
