Carletonville is a gold-mining town in western Gauteng, South Africa. It is one of the richest gold-producing areas in the world. At 3,749 m, Western Deep Levels is one of the world's deepest mines. Developed by various mining companies from 1937 onwards, the town – which was named after the long-serving mining director of Consolidated Gold Fields, Guy Carleton Jones – was not officially incorporated until 1959. The Elandskraal mine, site of a 3 October 2007 collapse, is located in Carletonville. Carletonville is currently part of the Merafong City Local Municipality. ==Famous people from Carletonville== * Brian McMillan, South African cricketer * Jaque Fourie, South African rugby union footballer 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carletonville」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
