Who pumps what in Middelburg

Collieries and the smelters on the edge of town need dewatering, process water and slurry pumps. Households in Aerorand, Kanonkop and Eastdene mostly want backup water, because supply interruptions and low pressure are a familiar complaint, so tanks with booster pumps are common. Out on the farms, maize and soya growers and cattle farmers rely on boreholes, and old windmills are slowly giving way to solar pumps. The ground is often sandstone and shale with dolerite in places, which drillers read when they site a hole. Engineering works and pump shops sit in the industrial areas near the N4 and N11.
