 Ophir in Genesis 10 (the Table of Nations) is said to be the name of one of the sons of Joktan.The Books of Kings and Chronicles tell of a joint expedition to Ophir by King Solomon and the Tyrian king Hiram I from Ezion-Geber, a port on the Red Sea, that brought back large amounts of gold, precious stones and 'algum wood' and of a later failed expedition by king Jehoshaphat of Judah.The famous 'gold of Ophir' is referenced in several other books of the Hebrew Bible.
