What to know locally in North West
Smallholdings in Brits, Hartbeespoort and Mooinooi often run a 4 inch borehole pump into a tank with a booster for the house. Maize and cattle farms around Lichtenburg, Coligny and Vryburg use bigger three phase pumps or <a href="/solar-borehole-pumps/">solar borehole pumps</a> at remote troughs. Borehole yields vary sharply across the dolomite and the granite, so a proper yield test before choosing the pump pays off.
Who pumps what in North West
The platinum belt runs from Brits through Rustenburg, and its shafts, concentrators and tailings dams keep a whole industry of slurry, dewatering and process pumps at work. Around Brits and Hartbeespoort, smallholdings and vegetable farms take water from boreholes and from canals below the dam. Further west, the maize country around Lichtenburg, Delareyville and Mahikeng leans on groundwater, much of it from dolomite aquifers that feed springs and town supplies, while cattle farms towards Vryburg still have windmills being swapped for solar pumps. Klerksdorp and Orkney sit on old gold mines with their own water to manage. Summers bring heavy storms; winters are dry, and borehole levels can drop late in the season.
Typical submersible pumps requests in the area come from:
- Mines and quarries: dewatering pumps for pits and shafts and slurry pumps for settling ponds
- Farms: borehole and dam pumps for livestock water and irrigation, often on three phase
- Smallholdings and plots: one borehole pump for the house, the animals and the vegetable garden
