The Bickefeld colliery is a former hard coal mine in Hörde on the south bank of Lake Phoenix . The mine had been in operation since 1734 and is also known under the names Zeche Bickenfeld and Zeche Bickenfelde . Exact production figures from the mine are not known. The mine belonged to the Bochum mining district and there to the Hörde mining area .

history

The beginnings

On May 3, 1747 there was a renewed expectation . In 1754 tunnel construction was carried out on the mine . In 1755 and 1756 the mine was the largest mine in the Hörde mining authority . In 1755 there were 14 miners and in 1756 15 miners were employed in the mine. On April 19, took place ceremony of a length field . The mine now also had an hereditary tunnel . On January 21st of the year 1760 a speculation was put in on the two coal banks Bickefeld No. 11 and Bickefeld No. 12. The two coal banks had previously been run over by the mine tunnel. On April 19 of the same year the two coal banks were mortgaged. On January 11, 1761, Mr. Leifmann bought a share of the mine from the trades Bernd Adam Artmann and Hermann Wilberg . The dismantling came to an end on November 7, 1763 . The recess money continued to be paid. It was shut down around 1771, and the rightful owner was cleared of the mine again . As trades Messrs DJ Bielefeld, Johann Henrich Petersen, Johann Wessel Franzen, William Buescher, Peter Schneider, Leif husband were in at that time documents entered.

The other years

On November 5, 1777, all seams were reassembled . The expectation took place on the former rights of the Bickefeld colliery, which had fallen out of the mountains, and extended between the Emscher and the Verlohrne Holz. One was subsequently below the Bright bankers tunnel tunnels from the Emscher southbound ascended . Another tunnel was opened in 1786. On January 24, 1789, the Bickefeld Bank was granted the right to be granted. From 1794 the mine was out of order. The mine was inspected on December 4th . The mine had 12 seams that had already been built by means of tonnage shafts . The tunnel length was 400 laughers . On June 6, 1802, the remaining seams that lay below the tunnel or had been driven over by it were awarded. In addition, the consolidation to the Bickefeld & Verlohrne Holz colliery took place on the same date .

Bickefeld & Verlohrne wood

Commissioning of the mine Bickefeld & Verlohrne wood should, after the consolidation of Bickefeld with Verlohrne wood, only take place if the pending seams were solved by the deeper Clare Berger studs. It is not known whether this happened. The mine was located in the Dortmund districts of Hörde and Schüren . The colliery was also just called the Bickefeld colliery. On August 27, 1830 and May 9, 1831, the consolidation to the United Bickefeld civil engineering colliery took place .
