"He believed firmly that the territory which he travelled contained mineral wealth of…incalculable value. He was among the early diamond seekers in Kimberley, and also located deposits of copper and iron near Pretoria. With the assistance of his younger brother, Fred Struben, he found the Confidence gold reef, and subsequent geological evaluation and prospecting by the two brothers resulted in the discovery of the vast goldfields which have contributed so enormously to the healthy well-being of modern industrial South Africa.".
