Conveyors in Northern Cape

The Northern Cape is South Africa's iron ore and manganese heartland. Open-pit iron ore mines around Kathu and Sishen load trains bound for Saldanha, and the Kalahari manganese field near Hotazel and the Postmasburg area supplies the export chain. Belts here are wide, fast and heavily loaded. Kimberley's diamond heritage continues with smaller operations, Namaqualand has copper and zinc, and the Orange River at Upington supports table grapes, dates and packhouses. Conditions are harsh: extreme summer heat, fine red dust, cold winter nights and very long distances. Suppliers and splicing crews often travel hundreds of kilometres, so planned shutdowns and local spares holding matter.
