Dingleton is a town in Northern Cape, South Africa.
The nearby Sishen mine is an iron ore mining activity, connected to the port of Saldanha Bay by the Sishen-Saldanha Railway Line.
The state-owned mining company Iscor started developing the township, originally named Sishen, in 1953 to accommodate the local miners.
[3] On 23 June 1990 the town's name was changed from Sishen to Dingleton.
[3] To allow for Sishen's expansion, Kumba, an Anglo American subsidiary, intends to relocate the Dingleton community.
