The pit Haniel field is a limestone - quarry in the Upper Devonian Massenkalk the west of Wuppertal in the municipality Vohwinkel on the border with Wülfrath . The quarry near Wieden to the southwest or south of Dornap is named after the former location of Hanielsfeld , which has completely disappeared due to the mining. To the north of the pit runs Düsseldorfer Straße , classified as Bundesstraße 7 , and to the east, Bahnstraße , which is classified as Bundesstraße 224 . The Hanielsfeld and Vossbeck pits , which are located north of Düsseldorfer Straße , are connected by a tunnel below Bundesstraße 7. In the west runs the route of the Wuppertal-Vohwinkel-Essen-Überruhr railway , which is used by the S 9 S-Bahn . Another tunnel crosses beneath the railway line and creates a connection to the Hahnenfurth mine .
The pit measures around 700 meters in the west-east extension and around 530 meters in the north-south extension (this refers to the area that is closed to the public). The mine is operated by Rheinkalk GmbH Werk Dornap (with company headquarters in Wülfrath). However, the actual mining has stopped and the pit is used as a clarification pond for the neighboring Vossbeck mine. The clarification pond in the Schickenberg pit is used as additional capacity for the Hanielsfeld clarification pond . The bottom is around 45 meters below ground level in the area (based on Wieden, which is around 190 meters above zero).
