Conveyors in Lydenburg

Lydenburg, now also called Mashishing, lies on the escarpment between the Highveld and the Lowveld, beside the Steelpoort Valley with its chrome and vanadium mines and smelters. Chrome ore and fines are abrasive and heavy, and belts, feeders and screening plants here work hard. Timber plantations and trout farming around Dullstroom and Sabie add sawmills and food-processing lines. Winters are cold with frost, and summers bring thunderstorms and mist. The town is remote from large engineering centres, so suppliers and splicers travel in from eMalahleni, Middelburg and Polokwane, and mines often hold their own spare belting and rollers on site.
