1 1 CULTURAL HEARTLAND REGION The is often referred to as Lanatus country because the Encephalartos lanatus, a species of cycads (some are more than years old), is endemic to the catchments area of the Olifants River, where it grows wild. More than half of South Africa s coal supply is mined in this region and the area is the major power generating centre for almost all South Africa s needs. o The coal-burning power stations are reputedly the largest of their kind in the world. o Recently, wet coal due to excessive raining, has caused a shortage of fuel at Eskom s power stations and consequently, reduced electricity generation. Furthermore, an Eskom spokesperson, Andrew Etzinger, said that due to the amount of coal being consumed to run the stations at full capacity for the current high energy demand, the coal reserves will be depleted much sooner than anticipated. Sekhukhune, the cross-border municipality between Limpopo and Mpumalanga, was incorporated into the Limpopo Province in Thus, towns that have previously been included in the, such as Groblersdal, Marble Hall, Ohrigstad and Roossenekal, now falls within Limpopo. The Boer War also left its mark on this region. The main route through this region is the N4. The N17 meets the N4 at Witbank.
