The first magistrate of the small community that settled on the banks of the Schoonspruit in 1837, Jacob de C'lerq, gave his name to a town founded by Voortrekkers and built by gold mining. The discovery of gold in 1886 saw thousands of prospectors descending on the quiet rural aggregation of Klerksdorp.

Today, Klerksdorp is the centre for a large mining and agricultural economy and has the second largest grain co-operative in the world.
