It means the Zone Effect described in the Power continues for another Round. When you stop Sustaining it, the zone dissipates.

So can I sustain the zone for say 5 rounds all the while being able to cast spells as usual during that time? Or must I spend each round concentrating on keeping the zone there.

That's why it just says "Sustain Minor;" you only need to use a Minor Action to Sustain it. Some things say "Sustain Standard," which would take your entire Standard Action to keep going. With just a sustain Minor, you can use both your Move Action and your Standard Action every turn after Sustaining the Zone with your Minor Action.

Just a note, but you do have to spend your minor each turn to keep it around. It's not just one action and bampf.
