Buying or hiring mining equipment means matching machines to a mine, a tonnage and a maintenance budget. ConveyorBelting.co.za is a free quote-request service. Describe what you need, new, used or for hire, and we pass your request to independent mining equipment suppliers in South Africa, who contact you and quote directly. We are not a supplier and we sell nothing ourselves. The request is free and there is no obligation to accept any quote. Compare several offers on price, lead time, spares support and service backup before you decide.

What mining equipment covers

The term covers every machine that breaks, moves, sorts or lifts rock and ore. Typical requests include:

  • Crushing and screening: jaw, cone and impact crushers, vibrating screens, feeders and grizzlies
  • Loading and hauling: excavators, front-end loaders, rigid and articulated haul trucks
  • Stockpiling: stackers, reclaimers and conveyors that link the plant
  • Drilling and support: drill rigs, roof bolters, pumps and ventilation fans
  • Spares and wear parts: liners, bearings, hoses, teeth and rebuilt components

Surface and underground equipment

Surface mines and quarries favour large, mobile machines that follow the face. Underground mining equipment is built to work in tight headings: low-profile loaders, load-haul-dump units, battery or diesel locomotives, roof bolters and shaft hoisting gear. Coal, platinum, gold and chrome mines each have different conditions, from gassy seams to hard, abrasive reef. State the commodity, the depth or bench height, and the ground conditions, so the supplier can recommend machines that suit them. Ventilation, water handling and power supply often decide which machines are practical at depth, so mention them early.

New, used, hire and manufacturers

Suppliers of mining equipment supplies range from agents for large international makers to local fabricators and rebuilders. Some companies are mining equipment manufacturers in South Africa and build screens, chutes, feeders and frames to your drawings. Mining equipment for hire suits short contracts, breakdown cover and projects where buying makes no sense. Used machines cost less upfront but need an inspection, service history and a clear spares plan. Ask for hours worked, major rebuild dates and whether the original maker still supports the model. Check that wear parts are available locally.

Equipment on a mine must meet the Mine Health and Safety Act and its regulations. Ask for guarding, fire suppression, emergency stops and operator training to be part of the offer. Most plants also depend on belts: the crusher, screen and stockpile are linked by conveyors, so check the mining conveyor belts and conveyor systems pages when you plan a new circuit. Sizing the crusher, screen and belt together avoids bottlenecks and costly rework later.

Comparing mining equipment quotes

Prices change with rubber and steel costs, the exchange rate and stock levels. When quotes arrive, check:

  • Exact specification: width, carcass and strength, cover grade and thickness, or the part number, size and standard.
  • Quantity and units: per metre, per roll, per item or per set, and any minimum order or cutting charge.
  • Lead time: ex stock, or imported or made to order, and how long that takes.
  • Delivery and VAT: transport to site, offloading of heavy rolls, whether VAT is included and how long the price holds.

What to include in your request

  • Type of equipment and capacity in tonnes per hour
  • Commodity, ore hardness and abrasiveness
  • Surface or underground, and the site location
  • New, used or hire, and the hire period
  • Spares, service backup and delivery date required

Frequently asked questions

Are you a mining equipment supplier?
No. ConveyorBelting.co.za is a free quote-request service. We pass your request to independent mining equipment suppliers, manufacturers and hire companies, who quote you directly and supply the equipment if you accept. There is no charge for the request and no obligation to buy.
Can I get mining equipment for hire instead of buying?
Yes. Many suppliers hire out crushers, screens, loaders, trucks and conveyors, with or without an operator. State the hire period, the site location and whether you need maintenance and fuel included. Hire suits short projects, trial runs and breakdown cover.
What affects the cost of mining equipment?
Price depends on the machine type and size, whether it is new, used or rebuilt, the duty and ore type, delivery distance and commissioning. Exchange rates affect imported machines. Ask suppliers to quote spares, service support and warranty terms alongside the purchase price.
Do suppliers deliver to remote mines?
Most do. Delivery, offloading, assembly and commissioning can be included in the quote. Give the nearest town, road access and any height or weight limits on the route, so the supplier can plan transport for large or abnormal loads.
