history

The beginnings

The mine was already in operation around 1775. On September 9, 1776, the request was made . Matthias Spenemann et Consorten acted as mother . In the years 1781 and 1782 the mine was visited by Mr. von Reden. At the time, the mine was working in a gently sloping seam between 36 and 40 inches thick . In his minutes, Von Reden praised the good quality of the coal that was extracted from the mine. The coal mined had a high proportion of lump coal and was largely sold to Holland. In 1783 was in a reel shaft using round tree promoted , the same year that was mine field measured . In 1784 the mine was by the Altendorfer Erbstollen solved . In the same year the mine was in operation. On July 15 of that year, the mine was by the head of the Mark Berg Revieres, the Baron von Stein , navigate . The Altendorfer Bank colliery was one of 63 mines that vom Stein visited on its journey through the Brandenburg mountain area. At this point, two shafts were open. One shaft was used for extraction and the other for ventilation . Vom Stein gave information about the further condition of the mine in his protocol. In particular, von Stein suggested digging another shaft . In his opinion, the shaft was necessary in order to drive the excavation of the basic section more quickly.

The further operation

On April 15, 1788 a length field was awarded . There is evidence that the mine was in operation in 1789. In 1796, shaft 8 was mined . In 1800 the union shaft was in operation, in August of the same year the mining was stopped. In 1808, mining began in the Aprocher field at shafts 11 and 12. Shaft 11 was also called Shaft Peter. Shaft 12 was equipped with a gopel . The Göpelschacht was in operation in 1810 and 1815. In 1816, an 850 Lachter- long tow path to the “AmStaade” coal storage facility was put into operation. The AmStaade coal storage facility was on the Ruhr. In 1820 the Abendstern shaft and shaft 12 were in operation. The Abendstern shaft was in operation in 1825, and from March of the same year the Aprocher field was added to the Alte Aproche colliery. In 1838 the Altendorfer Bank colliery was dissolved by the four Lachter deeper Himmelsfürster Erbstollen, but this measure brought little benefit to the mine.
