Conveyors in Welkom

Welkom grew up around the Free State goldfields and is surrounded by shafts, gold plants and very large tailings dams from Virginia to Odendaalsrus. Deep underground mining has declined, but reclamation of old tailings, surface rock dumps and processing of remaining reefs still need conveyors, feeders and transfer systems. Underground belts must meet fire-resistance and safety rules, while surface belts face cyanide-residue dust, summer storms, frost and flat open exposure. Much of the equipment is old, so refurbishment, re-lagging, idler replacement and creative splicing are common. The town has a deep pool of mining artisans, engineering workshops and former mine staff who now run independent contractors.
