Conveyors in Kriel

Kriel is a small coal town surrounded by collieries that were developed to feed the Kriel and Matla power stations, which burn coal delivered mainly by conveyor directly from the mines. The same long belts, transfer towers and stockyards define the local landscape, and belt cleaning, spillage control and idler replacement are constant concerns. Maize farms around the town add seasonal grain handling. Winters are cold and dry, summers are wet with frequent lightning and hail. Kriel is a considerable distance from larger centres, so most work is done by contractors based in eMalahleni, Ogies and Secunda who handle emergency repairs, planned shutdowns and spares holding.
