Welkom
South Africa
Welkom, South Africa carries 54 connections with 1551 other places across 12 topics, with sports and earth sciences as the dominant threads. A geological basin situated on the Kaapvaal craton holds a 6-kilometre-thick succession of sedimentary rocks extending laterally for hundreds of kilometres. Cricket runs deep here: Peter Heine took 8 wickets for Orange Free State against Transvaal in Welkom in 1954-55. Cape Town and Bloemfontein rank among its most-connected peers, and a 1933 gold discovery near Klerksdorp encouraged geologists to view the northwestern Free State as a potential gold field.
