Vereeniging er en by ved Vaal-elva i Gauteng-provinsen, Sør-Afrika, med et innbyggertall på mer enn 474 681 (2006).[1] Byen er en del av det såkalte Vaal-triangelet og var tidligere en del av Transvaal-provinsen. Vereeniging er lokalisert syd i Gauteng, og er nabo med Vanderbijlpark (vest), Three Rivers (øst), Meyerton (nord) og Sasolburg (syd). Navnet Vereeniging kommer fra det afrikaanse/nederlandske ordet for «forening».

Det dominerende språket i Vereeniging er afrikaans, og deretter engelsk og sesotho. Byens motto er «Per Pacem ad Industriam» (gjennom fred til industri).

Like ved Vereeniging ligger også Sharpeville, som var åsted for Sharpeville-massakren i 1960.

Historie

Byen ble grunnlagt i 1892, og mye av byens tidlige vekst var på grunn av nærliggende kull-gruver. Byen er antakeligvis mest kjent for å være stedet hvor Vereeniging-traktaten ble fremforhandlet, som gjorde slutt på den andre boerkrigen (1899–1902). Under denne konflikten ble det etablert en konsentrasjonsleir i området, av det britiske militæret.

Byen er i dag et av de viktigste industrielle områdene i Sør-Afrika, og leverer hovedsakelig jern, stål, rør, murstein, fliser og kalk. Det er også en rekke kull-gruver i området, med reserver på ca. 4 milliarder tonn (estimert). Lethabo kullkraftverk fra 1990 er et av verdens kraftigste målt i installert effekt.
