The Martin Hoop hard coal mine was a hard coal mine in Reinsdorf , Pöhlau and Mülsen .
history
Morgenstern Sarfert & Wiede coal works
The mining company Gotthelf Anton Wiede and his mother-in-law Johanne Dorothea Sarfert, the owner of the hard coal works Carl Gotthilf Sarferts Erben, founded the hard coal works Morgenstern Sarfert & Wiede in 1867 . In the same year they acquired mining rights on Reinsdorfer Flur and began to sink the Morgenstern shaft I. The 107.5 hectare mine field stretched 2.6 kilometers in north-south direction from the land border with Pöhlau to the land border with Vielau and was only about 500 meters wide. In the West mark distinctive from it with the Zwickau-Oberhohndorf Dorfer coal Building Association and the East with the coal plant Florentin Kastner & Co. in 1872 and was recognized in Reinsdorf Shaft II in 1884 both shafts durchschlägig connected. During that time, a coking plant was built on shaft II and a briquette factory on shaft I.
Morgenstern union
The company was transformed into the Morgenstern union on April 25, 1889 . An 850 m long wooden trestle bridge was built between shafts I and II in 1890, on which the Hunte were transported by chain train from shaft II over the Reinsdorf valley to the laundry on shaft I. In 1891, 755 people worked on the plant, 567 of them underground. In 1895/96 the field was extended by a 96-hectare strip north of the field boundary with Pöhlau up to the field boundary with Auerbach. In 1899, the 70-hectare mine field east of Florentin Kästner was acquired by the insolvent Reinsdorf coal mining association. The Schacht III was from 1900 to 1904 for the development of the North Field sunk and was on reaching its final depth of 1,082 m, the deepest shaft in Germany. The fossilization process was used for the first time in Germany . In 1902, after long negotiations, the Morgenstern union acquired the Zwickauer Brückenberg-Steinkohlenbau-Verein for 250,000 gold marks, its 107 hectare east field, which separates directly to the east with the north field. In 1904 the southern field was charred and shaft II (old) was dropped . Shaft I was dropped in 1909/10. A total of 6 million tons of hard coal were extracted from the Reinsdorfer Feld. The workforce and the entire production were moved to shaft III. In 1920, shaft IV was sunk as a weather shaft on the eastern edge of the pit field , in the former Brückenberger Ostfeld. Further weather shafts were started with the shafts V 1935 and VI 1943. Work on Shaft V was completed in 1938. The sinking operation at the shaft VI was on 19 January 1945 at the end of World War II , at 202 m depth deferred .
In 1920 the Morgenstern union took over the Brückenberg-Steinkohlenbau-Verein as the Brückenberg operations department and in 1930 the Reinsdorf hard coal works Florentin Kästner & Co. with shafts I and II as the Florentin Kästner operations department. The shafts were later given the numbers VII and VIII. In 1923 the company employed 5,000 people.
VEB Martin-Hoop-Werk Zwickau
As a result of the referendum in Saxony in 1946 , the Morgenstern union was also expropriated. At the instigation of the Soviet occupation forces, shaft IV was expanded into the main production shaft from 1946. The new, brick winding tower was completed in 1948. A steam engine with 2,000 PS (1,471 kW), which was manufactured in 1914 as a spiral cage conveyor for the Oelsnitz district, served as the conveying machine for the eastern production. After the closure of the Rudolf Breitscheid shaft, it was moved to shaft IV. It was able to lift the three-tier conveyor frames, two hunts each, from the −515 m level at 18 m / s. In the same year, the factory was renamed VEB Martin-Hoop -Werk. The Martin-Hoop-Werk and the Karl-Marx-Werk were separated in 1949. In a mine fire in 1952, 48 miners were killed. As a result of this accident , several executives around Otto Fleischer were brought to justice and convicted. On November 15, 1955, the second, western conveyor system in shaft IV was completed and put into operation. This was a skip conveyance with 6.5-tonne skips and an electric traction sheave hoisting machine with 1,365 kW (1,856 hp).
Shaft IX was sunk in Mülsengrund in 1953 as a material and fresh weather shaft. Shaft VI was finally abandoned and filled in 1957 . Shafts VII and VIII were also dropped in the same year.
In 1958 a comprehensive modernization of the company began. At the current eastern edge of the mine field, the new weather shaft X was sunk; a year later, the conversion of the main conveyor system into a double shaft system began by sinking the new main conveyor shaft IVa. The contractor was VEB Schachtbau Nordhausen. The IVa shaft received a 60 m high concrete headframe in slip-form construction with two conveyor systems: a four- rope Koep machine with 2,200 kW (2,991 hp) and automatic control as well as a single-rope Koep machine with 630 kW (857 hp). Both carriers were manufactured in VEB NOBAS Nordhausen. The large hoisting machine was equipped with 20-tonne skips, the small one with a rack conveyor. A new main excavation level was created at 675 m below sea level . A new laundry was built above ground in 1962 . The shafts II and III as well as the processing on shaft III could be discarded in 1962. The production and processing was now concentrated on Martin-Hoop IV / IVa. The coal mine power plant supplied electricity and district heating for the city of Zwickau and the surrounding communities.
Shutdown
After the Karl Marx plant had been reintegrated into the Martin Hoop plant as the "Karl Marx works department" in 1968, the Martin Hoop plant was now the last producing hard coal works in the Zwickau district. Here, too, production was gradually stopped; In 1978 the last hunt coal was mined. Shaft X was dropped in 1978, shaft IX in 1979, shafts V and Friedrich Nickolay (the central drainage shaft of the Zwickau district; 50 ° 42 ′ 43.5 ″ N , 12 ° 29 ′ 59.9 ″ E ) in 1980, shaft IV 1982 and the last extraction shaft in the Zwickau area, shaft IVa, 1983. The power plant continued to operate until June 30, 1996 and supplied electricity and district heating for the city of Zwickau. In March 1997 the processing building and in April 1998 the chimney of the power plant were blown up.
The headframe of shaft IX is to be demolished and the site cleared in order to designate a residential area.
