according to scientific opinian (sentiment) and geology graph , katalehkhor has created into sagizlo mountain in the Aligomiosen lime (calsium oxide) that is realated to third period of geology Almost , about 30 milion years it could have oldness (Ancientness). the birthyear of this cave for first time is'nt obvious by human , but Garmab people's had traffic into this cave from generation years and Garmab of old people's saying and neibor village ,show taht their father and elder had traffic and their stories is envince this mother.

Also , by fabled stories , somel people had gone into cave and in returning they couldn't find .their path and lost , but after some days ,they were found by Garmab 's people . outward opinian had traingle shop whit 70 centimeter that was single way of accessible into cave and now it is .due to (because of) a torrent or midstream that was run in front of cave , input of cave is placed alittle upper and on the slope of mountain . after this matter , torrent was intervented to upper parts.this outward was natural untill 1372 ,but after this year it was changed and reopened by 1 and reclamation assistance of zanjan ethnarch.In primitive exploration by organs it has aparted to ward . left about 15 meter that was related the beside comidox of cave.ulteriorly it had a way from outside of cave on parallel whit out ward (input) to comidox.now , it is using as a waiting saloon (hall) . pirmitive input is closed because they were going to prevent some damages.this place is named yort yeri by tropical people . it is meaning the living place of people by their forefather in turkish language.

Geologistis say , there is some other ways (oath) because they couldn't find the end of cave and this matter upprove their opinia.they had found some animal's fessil which hasn't belonged to latter-day's animal skeleton ' it is probably for afore period , of caurse , complete specification requisite conveys . some of their pieces vanished naturally and only the head of one complete fossil has destroyed by wrangful trafic before government's going on. Also there is two pany animal that we can say , they are sample of pany animals so-called " Pekan " which belong to third period of geolog and it helped to estimated the age of cave. now , there is just bat becuse of the black of food and sufficient light in the cave , they has high-speed trafic for food at input of cave in the evening . the climate of cave is different in the varied parts . in stance input door has fresh weather because of turning weather to 4000 meter.the climate starts from 11 centigrade and its damp (wet) is about 90 percent in the farther parts and now they are without upgrowth.All cressets of cave are at several types which some of them have cabbage shape without upgrowth. All cressets in the cave are the result of lime sediments without upgrowth . All cresset in the cave are the result of lime sediments which created at first satage by cenflict with acidosis water which was solution baking soda and after pass from stones , run long way on the roof and after decreasing pressure and lost the gases in the a calsium carbonate position (style) compose stalagits . quantitative of sediments fall down and comose the stalagmit which are in parallel of stalagits . after growing , they reconstitute and they create huge column after many years which have different colours becuause of some extra substone but some of them dont have this extra substone and they are neat and clesr and because of this reason , they are seen at crystal shape.cabbage flower cressets are not growing because they dont have sendimentation . before this time , they need about 30 years for growing just 1 milimeter but stalagtits and stalagmits of cave which slender and reedy cressets are a kind of them , are active and thet grow 1 milimeter per (7) years of course this numbers (digits) are approximatire . because the growth of cressets depend on more qualifications as : penetrability or unpenetrability of roof , denstiy of carbonat solutin , speed of water (water speed) , ability of sedmient penetrating , and so on . we hope that visitors try to do best for keping and translating it to future generation. Katalehkhoure integration hold in respect the aforehand and visitor and cherish whit capabilites like : locational suits , big and beautifule warting saloon , after stall of handcrafts , roof , culture and electrical communication , supermarket coffce shop and others and wish a good trip for you , dear visitors
