Lignite mining and mine disaster

The pit Stolzenbach lignite area Borken promoted since 1956 in underground mining from a depth of about 60 to 170 m lignite . In one of the biggest disasters in German coal mining, the Stolzenbach mine disaster on June 1, 1988, 51 miners were killed by a coal dust explosion in the Stolzenbach lignite mine . Six miners survived in an air bubble at a depth of 150 meters and were rescued on June 4th. The "Stolzenbach Aid Working Group" was founded to provide acute care for victims and auxiliary workers.

After the accident, lignite mining in the Borken region was stopped. Since then, the “ Stolzenbach mine memorial ” has been located on the outskirts of Stolzenbach .

The mine, which is now closed, is an important paleontological site for pond turtles ( Palaeoemys hessiaca and Borkenia oschkinisi ).
