An endless conveyor belt apparatus us employed for moving raw materials which are characterized in having fines associated therewith from one point to another. The apparatus includes a silicone-emulsion spraying device for applying an aqueous solution of the silicone-emulsion to the material supporting side of the endless belt in sufficient concentrations to promote the release of the fines from the belt when the material being conveyed is dumped, thereby preventing the undesirable build-up of fines on return idler rolls and beneath the belt at points along the belt's return path.
