Conveyors in Springs

Springs was a gold and coal town on the far East Rand, and it now relies on foundries, engineering shops, packaging plants and warehousing in areas like Struisbult, Withok, Selcourt and Nuffield. The surrounding old gold dumps are part of the East Rand tailings retreatment belt, with pipelines and some belting carrying reclaimed material to processing plants. Nearby Nigel and Delmas link the town to maize farms and Mpumalanga coal. Altitude is about 1,600 metres, with dry dusty winters and sharp summer storms. Belt suppliers, roller and pulley workshops and splicing crews can be reached from Germiston, Benoni and Boksburg in under an hour.
