Mining history
In 1831 the suspicion was lodged. On June 27, 1846, a square with a size of one square kilometer was awarded . In 1854 began, a tunnel in the seam sunshine aufzufahren . The tunnel mouth hole was on Rauendahlstrasse, west of the Treue tunnel . The dismantling began in the same year . There were two seams with different thicknesses in Verhieb taken. One seam was 54 inches in thickness , the other seam was varying in thickness from 20 to 24 inches. In 1855, 25 miners extracted 10,727 Prussian tons of hard coal. The mined coals were strong baking. In 1856 the tunnel was endangered by increasing rock pressure , for this reason the further excavation of the tunnel was relocated to the neighboring Schöttelchen seam. In spite of the difficulties, it was during this year that the mine achieved maximum production. With 73 miners, 4139 tons of hard coal were extracted. In 1859, four miners initially extracted 1,188 tons of hard coal. Since the coal was of inferior quality, the Diebitsch colliery was shut down in 1859. On November 22nd, 1873, the Diebitsch colliery consolidated with other collieries to form the Brockhauser Tiefbau colliery .
