Mining history

Location of the potash shafts

About one kilometer northwest of the district of Lossa are the disused shafts and pits of the potash works unions Richard and Reichskrone . The distance between the shafts is only 30 m. Thus, by definition, they represent a double-shaft system. The underground systems have an area of approx. 850 × 750 m.

Both wells were taken in 1909 or 1910 in attack and opened up the Kali - seam Staßfurt on the southwest edge of the Roßleben saddle. In addition to the excavation of exploratory routes, carnallitite was only extracted in four mining locations between 1913 and 1916. The total amount of carnallitite extracted is given as around 100,000 tons. The final shutdown of these pits took place in 1921.

To ensure public safety , the manholes have now been stored and secured by a cover . The manhole safeguards are secured against unauthorized entry by means of a chain link fence .
