The Alte Mißgunst colliery in the Sprockhöveler part of the Hammertal is a former hard coal mine . It is located in a forest south of the country road L551 on Elftenbach , a left tributary of the Pleßbachs . Little is known about the mine . The mine was reopened several times outside of and years after, and had at least four shafts in operation during its operating time .

history

The beginnings

Early 18th century, was first tunnel in the middle Pleßbachtal on the western side operated . The Mausegatt seam was mined in the south wing of the seam . From 1751 the mine stood still for about three years. Several years of operation are mentioned from 1754 to 1769. The mine is mentioned from 1775 onwards, but there is no evidence that it was in operation. In 1789, after several years of shutdown, operations were resumed. At that time the mine had a tunnel and a shaft in operation. This shaft was located in the area of today's A 43 motorway north of the Strickerbach . In addition, several shafts were in operation in the south wing of the mine, from Pleßbach in the Schmiedebach area.

The further operation

In 1809 the mine was restarted. The mining took place at the Heinrich-Ernst, Rudolph and Christina shafts. A year later, only the Heinrich-Ernst and Rudolph shafts were in operation. Five years later, in 1815, the Christina and Glückauf pits were in operation. On August 11 of the year 1818 which was presumption a new pit box inlaid with the name Daniel. The newly muted field was in the north wing of Old Envy. On July 20, 1820, the Alte Mißgunst colliery, which was last owned by a Rudolf Spennemann from Spähnen, was finally closed. On December 10, 1838, the quarter field was awarded to Daniel . In 1851, a day route was driven into the seam . In the late summer of 1852 the company was shut down. The reason for the closure was the impossibility of building the seam. The mining of the existing coal iron stone also turned out to be unprofitable. In 1897 the Daniel field was acquired by the Alte Haase colliery .

What is left

Only a few traces of the colliery have survived , including an overburden dump, a field scent to the Elftenbach and a tunnel mouth hole on the Pleßbach. The Ackeldruft, which is located south of Bochumer Straße in a small wood in Sprockhövel in the immediate vicinity of the information board, can be reached via Uhlenbruchstraße or the street An der Pfannenschmiede . The pit water from the Mausegatt seam in the north wing was diverted via this arable odor and fed to a tunnel. This tunnel detached the south wing. The Ackeldruft can be recognized today as a slight, linear depression in the terrain. The location of the colliery is a station on the Pleßbachweg hiking trail, which is historical in the mining industry .
