Conveyors in eMalahleni

eMalahleni, formerly Witbank, is the centre of the Witbank coalfield, one of the most heavily mined areas in Africa. Open-pit and underground collieries, coal wash plants and rail sidings surround the town, and the Duvha, Kendal and Kusile power stations lie in the same coalfield. A ferrochrome smelting cluster and a large steelworks add further heavy belting demand. Coal is abrasive, creates fire risk and calls for good belt cleaning, impact beds and fire-resistant covers underground. Winters are cold and dry with frost, and summers bring hail and lightning. Belt suppliers, splicing crews, roller refurbishers and mechanical contractors are well established here and serve the whole Highveld.
