The Bosselbank colliery is a former coal mine in Essen-Stadtwald- Kluse. The colliery is also known as the Bosselbänksgen colliery .
Mining history Bosselbank
Probably already since 1750 through tunnels mining in seam Bosselbank degradation operated. The Bosselbank seam is most likely the Finefrau Nebenbank seam . In 1796 this seam area was called Oberstollen. The dismantling was carried out by the shareholders Funtmann and Gebrand. On March 22nd, Mr. Funtmann and Mr. Gebrand gave the mine field a loan. A water bed was to be excavated and further mining to be carried out. The excavation of the water bed resulted in an overlap with the later Fendel tunnel . In 1803 was the reel shaft 3 supported , this reel shaft had little depth and was on the Long Brahmer saddle. In the course of the year, more shafts were sunk and an old tunnel was opened . In addition, together with the Langenbrahm colliery, a 600 Lachter long sliding path to the Ruhr was created and used.
In 1807, shaft 7 was mined. In 1811 the mining in the Bosselbank seam was stopped and from March of the same year the Bosselbänksgen seam was opened up with cross cuts . Subsequently, mining began in the Bosselbänksgen seam. On November 21, 1812, the Bosselbank colliery was shut down due to poor coal quality. Following this was Berechtsame of Fendel-Stolln acquired. On February 14, 1822, the entire right was acquired by the Langenbrahm mine .
Mining history Fendel-Stolln
On September 30, 1771, the Abbot Anselmus von Werden issued a prospecting permit to Fendel & Consorten. The tunnel operation began in the same year, but the dismantling was only short-lived. On March 30, the concession on the Bosselbank seam (Finefrau Nebenbank) was awarded . However, since this had also been loaned to the Bosselbank colliery, problems arose because it had been awarded here beforehand. That is why the Fendel-Stolln was also called Unterstolln. After 1812 ownership was transferred to the Bosselbank colliery.
