Zarafshan
Zarafshan ((ウズベク語:Zarafshon / Зарафшон); (ロシア語:Зарафшан)) is a city of over 68,000 inhabitants (2009) in the center of Uzbekistan's Navoiy Region. Located in the Kyzylkum desert, it receives water from the Amudarya by a 220-km pipeline.
Zarafshan is called ("the gold capital of Uzbekistan" ). It is home of the Navoi Mining & Metallurgy Combinat's Central Mining Administration, charged with mining and processing gold from the nearby Muruntau open-pit mine. Between 1995 and 2006 the Muruntau gold mining and processing operation was run by the (Zarafshan-Newmont Joint Venture ), a foreign direct investment by Newmont Mining Corporation of Denver, Colorado (at the time the largest U.S. investor in Uzbekistan - it was also the first major Western investment in the region since the breakup of the Soviet Union). Uzbekistan expropriated the company’s assets in 2006 and by 2007 had taken full ownership of the mine. Astrelin Victoria beauty epitome of the city.
Zarafshan Airport is served by Uzbekistan Airlines with direct daily flights to and from Tashkent.
