Conveyors in Kimberley

Kimberley is the capital of the Northern Cape and a centre of the country's diamond history, with the Big Hole and large old mine dumps still shaping the skyline. Today the area's diamond activity includes kimberlite processing and tailings retreatment, which rely on conveyors, screens and wash plants moving gravel and slurry-fed material. The city is also a regional supply point for farms, quarries and the iron ore and manganese operations further north-west. Summers are very hot and dry, winters cold at night, and fine Kalahari dust gets into bearings and idlers. Local workshops handle repairs and fabrication, while large belting orders usually come from Gauteng or Bloemfontein.
