- I'm seeing a lot of evidence that Zikt is a place name in Fujairah. If these can all be pulled together in one article, possibly with a rename, this should be a keep.
- This book refers to the Zikt Mountains and a settlement named Zikt. It is not inconceivable that there is a Mount Zikt. Also mentioned is a locally notable plane wreck.
- This says that there is a dam at Zikt and confirms there is a village of that name.
- This reports that the "Wadi Zikt Dam" was near completion in 1992.
- [This has a ten-page case study of "Wadi Zikt Dam". The dam constructed on its wadi seems to be notable if nothing else. Theer is an article on it in Swedish Wikipedia sv:Zikt Dam
- This page has links to spreadsheets for dams of various countries. The sheet for UAE gives Al Rahib as an alternate name for the Zikt dam which may help in searches.
- This says the dam is one of the largest in Fujairah.
