Northern Cape notes on drainage, sewage & dewatering
Iron ore and manganese mines around Kathu, Sishen, Postmasburg and Hotazel pump groundwater out of deep pits and run slurry through plants, so heavy <a href="/dewatering-pumps/">dewatering pumps</a> and wear parts are a big market. Towns rely on sewage pump stations where the ground is flat. Rare thunderstorms can flood dry riverbeds and low streets in Kimberley and Upington quickly, so drainage pumps get used.
Water and ground in Northern Cape
This is the driest and emptiest province, and on most of its farms the only water is underground. Sheep and cattle farms across the Karoo and the Kalahari have long relied on windmills, and many are now changing to solar pumps that fill reservoirs by day. Some towns, De Aar among them, depend heavily on boreholes. Along the Orange River at Upington, Kakamas and Keimoes, vineyards for table grapes and raisins pump straight from the river and canals. Around Kathu, Postmasburg and Hotazel, iron ore and manganese mines dewater pits and move slurry, and Kimberley still carries its diamond heritage. Groundwater in places is brackish or high in salts, and distances between workshops are vast.
Typical pond and fountain pumps requests in the area come from:
- Farms: a homestead garden feature or small dam aerated with a fountain pump
- Municipalities, schools and clinics: park fountains and civic water features with pumps in a pump room
- Homeowners: a garden pond, birdbath or small fountain with a quiet submersible pump
