history

The beginnings as Buskes Siepen

The Buskes Siepen colliery was created in 1855 from the merger of the authorized Hummelshagen and Depotter. Very little is reported about the Hummelshagen colliery . Presumably on July 24th or August 6th, 1838 the length field was awarded . After the presentation of the studs from the Brecherbachtal was westward ascended . Very little is reported about the Depotter colliery either . Here, too, the date of the award is not clear. Probably on July 24th or August 6th, 1838 the length field was awarded, after which the exploration work began. From 1855, the two mines are only called Büschessiepen in the mining authority documents. In 1855 there was little mining activity at the Buskes Siepen colliery. In 1858 the main tunnel was dismantled and driven again . In the same year, the aforementioned awarding took place under the name Dohm's Erbstollen.

The years as Dohm's Erbstollen

On November 22, 1858, the right to inherit the main gallery of Buskes Siepen was granted . In the same year, the excavation began in a northerly direction to the Buskes Siepen mine (Büschessiepen). In 1860, Buskes Siepen was taken over with subsequent dismantling . In the years 1861, 1863 and 1865 the mine was demonstrably in operation. In 1865 a square was awarded . In 1868 the Dohm's Erbstollen colliery was closed. In 1951 the mine was put back into operation. The mine was operated as a small mine for several years . The operator was A. Müller GmbH, later the mine was renamed Maier Werke . The Ruthertal tunnel, which was closed in 1868, was cleared again . In 1956 the mine was renamed Zeche Dohm's Erbstollen again. The final shutdown took place on January 12, 1961.

Promotion and workforce

The first funding and workforce figures come from the year 1861. In that year 2,818 Prussian tons of hard coal were mined with five miners . In 1952 production increased to 2,008 tons, this production was provided by 33 miners. In 1955, 4,043 tons of hard coal were mined with 14 miners. The maximum funding was provided in 1957. This year, 41 miners extracted 9,359 tonnes of hard coal. These are also the last known production and workforce figures for the mine.
