Conveyors in Pretoria

Pretoria's industry is spread across Pretoria West, Waltloo, Silverton, Rosslyn and Hammanskraal. Rosslyn is a vehicle assembly centre, the western side has steelworks and heavy fabrication, and several cement and aggregate operations supply the capital's construction market. Dolomitic quarries around the city produce crushed stone and lime. The Cullinan diamond mine lies to the east, and the eastern Bushveld belt is within reach. Altitude is around 1,350 metres, summers are hot with strong thunderstorms, and winters are dry and dusty. Belt suppliers, splicing crews, pulley and roller workshops and engineering firms serve both the city and the mines and plants of Limpopo and North West.
