Conveyors in Phalaborwa

Phalaborwa is built around its mining complex on the edge of the Kruger National Park, with copper ore mined from a very large pit and underground operations, and a processing and smelting chain that also produces phosphate and other by-products. Conveyors carry ore, concentrate and rock through crushers, stockpiles and plants in lowveld heat, with fine dust, summer humidity and occasional heavy storms. Heavy-duty steel-cord belts and high-wear components are used on the main ore lines, and shutdown planning drives most buying. A local base of contractors and workshops serves the mines and the smaller businesses in town, with specialised belting and drive equipment brought in from Polokwane and Gauteng.
