The Neue Haardt mine was an iron ore mine in the Siegen district of Weidenau . It was located in the Siegen II mining area and was the largest iron ore mine in the northern Siegen city area.
Aisle means
As passage means of the serving Sophier main gear and the gear luck mass having a length of 35 m and 3-4 m thick. This rose to up to 22.5 m on the 161 m level. The corridor was made of polished iron and spate iron stone . The Schnepfenberg corridor was 1–1.25 m thick and mainly contained Spateisenstein. The Neue Haardt corridor was 1.3 m thick and was made of shiny iron with copper ore. In addition to the aforementioned, there was also the Junge Haardt gang .
While the corridor area on the 975 m level was 2841 m², of which the Glücksmasse , Potsdam and Spandau corridors were 2261 m² and the separated east corridor was 580 m², this area was reduced 50 m below to 2005 m² ( Glücksmasse , Potsdam and Spandau had 1869 m²; the east corridor 136 m²) and on the 1075 m level it was just 905 m². Only the means of Glücksmasse , Potsdam and Spandau could be found there, and the mining industry was drawing to a close.
history
The mine was first mentioned in 1465. It began operations on July 13, 1831 and was formed on March 1, 1859 as the Neue Haardt mine from several mine fields. From 1870 carried blasting with dynamite .
Civil engineering began in 1856. Shaft I was set up in 1856 and was in operation from March 1, 1859. It was 351.8 meters deep and 6 meters in diameter. Its headframe was demolished in 1963. In 1857 the shaft reached a depth of 42 m, then two twin steam engines were used, with 6 HP for extraction and 15 HP for drainage, and two steam boilers were built. In 1858 the shaft reached 84 m, in 1866 120 and in 1885 a depth of 250 m. From 1902 there were plans, from 1907 a remote blind shaft was built .

From 1905 an electric conveyor reel was used. In 1912 it was dismantled with compressed air. The second shaft, the Ludendorf shaft, followed in 1911 . It was in operation from 1917, according to other sources from June 14, 1924, and with a size of 4.5 × 4.5 m, it was 1101 m deep. The Schacht III was with the treatment, he was recognized in 1918, had a diameter of 4.3 m and a depth of m 80th It was backfilled and secured and sealed in 1971/72. In 1920 the mine was bought by the Niederschelder Charlottenhütte .
