MTE Springbok 2026, Northern Cape
October 20 @ 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm UTC+0
Springbok was established as the administrative centre of a rich copper mining district in the Northern Cape, South Africa – with the first commercial mine in the country, the Blue Mine, located in the area in 1852. Apart from being centred around copper mining, industry is diversifying into renewable energy (like the Kangnas Wind Farm) and services, including those supporting the mining industry and local agriculture. The area also serves as a key retail and supply hub for the wider Namaqualand region.
