At an extraordinary general meeting on December 31, 1911, it was decided to sell the unprofitable Friedrichssegen mine with all the land. On March 14, 1912, ordinary shares amounting to 63,000 marks were publicly auctioned in the Lahnstein district court, the knockdown was for 2,000 marks.

The general meeting in Bad Ems in December 1912, chaired by the Berlin banker Max Rosenthal, decided to seek insolvency of the company in connection with a compulsory settlement. On July 16, 1913, the application was made to the Niederlahnstein district court . At a first creditors' meeting on July 29, 1913, the bankruptcy administrator announced that the debts of the AG amounted to 2 million marks.
The Werlauer mine, which was still in operation, was to be auctioned on August 4, 1914, and the Friedrichssegen mine on August 5. However, there was no auction on this date or at a later date. It was not until 1916 that the Werlau trade union was able to acquire the Gute Hope mine by means of a foreclosure auction .
