The Merume River is a river of Guyana, a tributary of the Kamarang River.
Merume is also the name of a nearby mountain,[1] which is 30 miles east of Mount Roraima.[2] Director Creek is a tributary of Merume River. First Falls is a feature of the river which also limits travel by boat.[3]
Merumite was discovered in 1937 appearing as black grains among diamonds and gold in the river gravel.[3] In 1958, merumite was determined to be a complex aggregate of eskolaite and chromium, X-ray diffraction data showed it contained eskolaite, guyanaite, bracewellite, grimaldiite, and mcconnellite.[4]
Kamakusa was a settlement along the river, and formerly a government center.[3]
