## Description

Few places concentrate mineral wealth like Rustenburg, centre of the Bushveld Complex and the world's richest platinum-group metal field. Its town airfield (ICAO FARG) stays largely apart from that industry, serving general aviation, charters and business flights rather than scheduled or freight traffic. Regional airline service runs from the larger Pilanesberg International (NTY) about 60 km north, while air cargo moves through Johannesburg O. R. Tambo. The province's mineral exports travel by rail and road to the coast, so FARG keeps a local role for private pilots and mine visitors.
