Gotthelf Schaller
Gotthelf Schaller , most recently only Schaller for short , was a mine in Johanngeorgenstadt in the Erzgebirge in Saxony .
history
In 1708 the eponymous vein was excavated. The mining law lending took place on April 11, 1708 with a treasure trove and the next two dimensions. Since the quarter of Trinity 1719, silver ores were brought out. The treasure trove itself was one of the steady silver suppliers from 1728 to 1767, with continuous silver production being recorded in every quarter from 1731 to 1749. After a short decrease in silver deliveries, this increased again from 1753. The decline in the extraction of the treasure trove began in 1766.
Due to the proximity to other mountain buildings that were also in operation at the time, gang disputes were not absent, which were then settled by means of settlements. This resulted in the Gotthelf Schaller own field , the Gotthelf Schaller and Silberkammer joint field , the Gotthelf Schaller and Brothers Lorentz joint field and the Neu Leipzig Glücker with Gotthelf Schaller and Silberkammer joint field .
The Gotthelf Schaller and Brothers Lorentz joint field was established in 1745 when it was discovered that the Ertz angel Michael Spat, on whom the pit was built, is identical to the Wunderliche Köpfe Spat of the neighboring Brothers Lorenz pit .
The Gotthelf Schaller and Silberkammer joint field was also created in 1745 because of the mining work that was tempted on the Gotthelf Schaller Gange . This common field with the silver chamber treasure trove was consistently delivered with silver from 1745 to at least 1800, with the high point being in the years 1750 to 1766. This mine field was one of the richest and richest mines in Johanngeorgenstadt.
Gotthelf Schaller's own field continuously supplied silver from 1763 to 1792.
The treasure trove and the other mine fields were first detached from the water by the Adolphus tunnel , then by the Eleonora tunnel and finally by the grace of God tunnel .
The stamp mill of the treasure trove was built in 1750 and was located near today's Schwefelwerkstraße. Its water impact occurred through the Roman eagle artificial moat . The stamping mill of the common field with silver chamber was located in Lehmergrund , which was destroyed on July 6, 1931 by a flood. The homeowner at the time lost his life.
The hat house of the treasure trove was on Eibenstocker Strasse in what is now the middle town of Johanngeorgenstadt. In 1798, the powder tower of the Neu Leipziger Glück mine , which still exists today, was built on the dump of the treasure trove .
Due to the poor economic situation of the mine, it was consolidated in 1821 with the Silberkammer Fundgrube under the name Gotthelf Schaller and Silberkammer Fundgrube .
In 1838 Gotthelf Schaller and Silberkammer merged with other collieries to form the United Feld im Fastenberge union . From 1850 onwards there was only a minor dismantling.
Uranium ore mining
With the acquisition of mining concessions by the object 01 of the bismuth AG in 1946 of on was Whimsical heads Spat geteufte brothers Lorenz Tagschacht as well 60 aufgewältigt. Shaft 32 was sunk in the immediate vicinity. Both manholes were combined into manhole management 60/32. In 1949, shaft management 42/120 was assigned to object 10, which was newly founded on August 1st. On November 1, 1950, object 10 was closed and the shafts reassigned to object 01. In 1951, the shaft management 60/32 was dissolved and assigned to the shaft management 31 bis ( New Year ).
The shaft 60 is 88 ° tonnlägig be Schacht starting point is 843.46 m above sea level. NN . Its deeper depth is 95.90 m. The shaft starting point of the shaft 32 is 842.89 m above sea level. NN . It has a depth of 198.39 m.
In 1951 the operation of the shaft 60 was stopped. In 1952, shaft 32 was closed.
The former colliery house was confiscated on July 27, 1947 and used as a shaft office. It was demolished in 1948 as part of the construction of residential barracks for 400 miners. The building of the former Poch wash of the Gotthelf Schaller mine has today been preserved as a technical monument on Schwefelwerkstraße . It had previously been used by the Catharina Fundgrube . To the west of it is the small dump with the well-preserved mouth hole of the Erzengler Rösche from 1839.
