The Mocke mine was an iron ore mine in the Siegen district of Kaan-Marienborn (formerly Kaan district) in Siegerland .

Aisle means

The passage means Mocke was in the upper depths 85 m long and 0.5-1.5 m thick. On the fifth floor , the agent was already 200 meters long and up to 7 m thick. The mine was known for its very pure ore. Between the 6th and 7th levels, the tunnels were only 2-3 m thick and withered towards the north, but became wider towards the south. The middle became unworthy of construction .

history

In 1847 the pit was muted . At an altitude of 269  m above sea level. NN was applied, a stud (Mocker basic tunnel). Two dies went down to 20 m and 33 m respectively, but could not be sunk any further due to the strong water. Civil engineering was introduced in 1865 . The shaft constructed this year had a size of 2 × 3 m and a depth of 242 m. Floors were created at 105, 155 and 235.3 m. On the third level, which was reached in the 1920s, a connection to the Ant Pit was created later . A blind shaft built in 1923 by the Rheinische Stahlwerke went down to the 7th, the 440 m level, after this was further sunk from 1954. By 1886, 41,675 t of iron ore had been mined. Since 1901 there was a connection to the Eisern-Siegen Railway . In 1926 Mocke ceased operations .

Already in 1935 there was another mute. On September 4, 1952, the breakthrough to the Iron Pit Ameise took place in order to further unlock the passage means of the mine . The pits were consolidated , so Mocke also belonged to the Eisernhardter Tiefbau mine , to which the Ameise had belonged since 1939. From June 1957, the processing of the mine ores was taken over at the Pfannenberger Einigkeit mine and the own roasting plant was shut down. On December 31 of the same year, Mocke was completely shut down.

Consolidations

A consolidation existed with the Kaaner Grube St. Mathias . This existed from 1847 to 1958. Around 1864 a 25 m deep die was created. In 1865 civil engineering began. In 1870, however, only 42 meters of accessible depth was reached over the shaft. This later went down to a depth of 113 m. From there a 30 m deep die was driven around 1880, so the total depth was 143 m. A compressor (for drills), and a water amusement machine (horizontal cylinder) were placed on the shaft. In 1885, 7,552 tons of Spateisenstein were mined, a year later the production was stopped. From 1953 onwards, the Mocke-Mathias mine owned by Eisernhardter Tiefbau also belonged to Erzbergbau Siegerland AG . In addition to the pits mentioned, the Zacharias small pit also belonged to Mocke .
