Conveyors in Postmasburg

Postmasburg lies on the Maremane iron ore belt and has supplied iron ore and manganese for decades. Opencast pits, crushing and screening plants and rail loadouts surround the town, and conveyors carry hard, heavy, abrasive material from crushers to stockpiles and train loading stations. Daytime temperatures in summer are very high, nights can drop sharply in winter, and strong winds carry dust across the plants. This puts a premium on robust idlers, sealed bearings, good belt cleaners and well-planned shutdowns. The town is smaller than Kathu, so specialist belting, pulleys and drive parts often come from Kathu or Kimberley, while local fabricators handle first-line repairs.
