About Aureus

Aureus is a small West Rand town just outside Randfontein, easy to reach off the R28 or via the N12 if you're coming from Joburg or Klerksdorp way. Locals nip through to Randpoort, just 6 km down the road, while a Skeerpoort run (57 km) makes for a decent weekend outing. Out-of-towners tend to arrive from further off, places like Lichtenburg or Rayton. Over 20 fast chargers dot the area for EV drivers, and Aureus itself sits right next to the historic Randfontein Estate Gold Mine.
