About Lime Acres Finsch Mine Airport
Lime Acres Finsch Mine Airport is a private aviation facility serving the Finsch Diamond Mine and the nearby town of Lime Acres in South Africa's Northern Cape province. It mainly supports mining operations, employee transport and non-scheduled charter flights rather than scheduled commercial airline services.
The airport sits at an elevation of about 1,494 metres and has a single paved runway, designated 15/33, suitable for turboprop aircraft and mid-sized private jets. Its compact terminal is designed for authorized personnel and pre-arranged flights, with access controlled by the mine and specialist logistics providers.
Located roughly 3 km from Lime Acres town centre and about 160 km northwest of Kimberley, the airport is reached by road via the R31. Ground transport typically relies on company vehicles, site shuttles and pre-booked transfers rather than public taxi or ride-share services.
For travellers needing scheduled commercial flights, Kimberley Airport is the nearest public hub. Within its industrial role, Lime Acres Finsch Mine Airport provides a focused, efficient gateway for crews, contractors and visitors supporting the Finsch mine.
