Conveyors in North West

North West is defined by the Bushveld platinum belt around Rustenburg and Brits and by the Vaal Reef gold fields near Klerksdorp, Orkney and Stilfontein. Platinum shafts, concentrators and smelters use heavy underground and surface belting on hard, abrasive UG2 and Merensky ore, and chrome recovery from tailings adds more. The gold fields now rely heavily on tailings retreatment. Beyond mining, it is a major maize region, with silos, mills and feed plants around Potchefstroom and Lichtenburg. Summers are hot with strong thunderstorms, winters are dry and dusty, and many sites are far from big cities, so a local splicing crew matters when a belt goes down.
