The Buntebank colliery is a former hard coal mine in Hombruch . The mine was also known under the name Zeche Bundebanck or Zeche Buntebanck in Hombruck .
history
On December 20, 1734, Johann Wilhelm Franzen and other trades were enfeoffed . A length field was awarded . At the time of the lending, an Akeldruft had already been created. The remaining coal was then mined via the Akeldruft . After the coal bank was burned out, Johann Wilhelm Franzen's co-trades left the union . So Franzen had to look for new co-trades. Together with his new co-workers, Johann Wilhelm Franzen wanted to mine the lower-lying coal. A new tunnel was then excavated . The mine was in operation from 1739 to 1771. This was probably followed by a standstill phase of several years. In 1771 the judges Franzen, grandson of Johann Wilhelm Franzen, and Gerhard Henrich Dieckerhoff were noted in the documents .
There is evidence that operations were resumed in 1784. In the years 1787 and 1788, several shafts were sunk in the Hombruch wood . From 1796 onwards, the shaft 7 was dismantled . In 1800 the Wilhelm shaft was in operation and five years later in 1805 the Weber and Rudolph shafts were in operation. In 1810 the Rudolph shaft and an unnamed air shaft were in operation. In 1815 the Henderich mine was in operation and another five years later the Gottfried, Wilhelm and Hope shafts were in operation. In 1825 the Wessel and Henderich shafts were in operation and in 1830 only the Henderich shaft was in operation. Between 1830 and 1835, the mine was very often worked in deadlines. In December of the year 1837 it was restarted. In October 1845 the mine was closed and in 1855 the right to the Zeche Louise civil engineering was added.
Promotion and workforce
Nothing is known about the workforce at the mine. The first production figures are known from 1830, 2,300 Prussian tons of hard coal were produced . In 1837 the production fell to 285 Prussian tons. Two years later the production rose to 9,939 5/8 Prussian tons. The highest production was achieved in 1842, 12,713 Prussian tons of hard coal were produced. Further production figures from the mine are not known.
