history

Dr. On January 3, 1848, Becker from Bensberg presented a certificate of courage on Raseneisenstein under the name Henriette . For Christian Pickhardt & Consorten, Friedrich Haanen applied for a new speculation on Eisenstein on July 10, 1848 . The award of iron ore took place on April 9, 1850 in the name of Quirin. On August 23, 1856, the Quirin mine was consolidated with the two neighboring mines Minchen and Christiane under the common name Quirin .

The Christiane pit was also muted to Raseneisenstein on January 3, 1848 . Another mutation followed on July 10, 1848. On July 20, 1850 the mining field on Eisenstein was awarded.

The Minchen mine had been muted to Raseneisenstein on July 10, 1848. With the two field inspection protocols of March 28, 1849 and April 4, 1850, the award to Eisenstein followed on July 20, 1850.

Since August 6, 1862, there has been an unlimited period of operation. Theodor Kamper had meanwhile become the sole owner. He sold the Quirin mine on November 2, 1869 to the Heinrich Gericke ironworks in Mülheim. From July 11th, 1872 the new owner was called Bochumer Verein für Gussstahlfabrikation. The mine fields were between Cologne-Rath and Forsbach in the Königsforst.
