The Erbenkampsbank colliery is a former hard coal mine in Essen-Bredeney . The mine was founded as a successor to the Bauernberg colliery and was in operation between 1805 and 1875 with several interruptions. The Erbenkampsbank colliery was one of the founding members of the Association for Mining Interests.

history

The predecessor mine

The Bauernberg colliery , also known as the Bauernberg coal mine , was the predecessor of the Erbenkampsbank colliery. In the first half of the 18th century, when field work was stopped, the mine was mined. In 1786 the abbot of Werden granted the concession to the lowest possible level. Subsequently, further mining was probably carried out. Around 1805 transfer to the successor company Zeche Erbenkampsbank.

The following years as Erbenkampsbank

Founded in January 1805 which included Berechtsame a seam with 36 inch thickness. In 1807, the excavation was carried out at shaft 7 - this shaft was located in the Kruppwald southwest of Villa Hügel . In 1881, mine 2 was mined. The mine was in operation between 1815 and 1825, and in 1820 the substation was dismantled. In 1830 was initially the focus of the mining area , then also degradation was operated. In 1831 the mine was closed due to the depletion of the deposit . After a long period of shutdown, dismantling was resumed in April 1834. In 1836 coal was first mined, but after that only experimental work was carried out. In 1841, after initial test work, a cross passage was driven. From July 1843, mining was again carried out and from 1845 the mine was set within deadlines . In the years 1853 and 1855, there is evidence of further mining. In 1862, the stocks above the bottom of the tunnel were almost depleted, after which there was probably a switch to substation construction or limited civil engineering . At that time the mine belonged to the Kettwig mining area . In the years 1863 and 1866 the mine was in operation, in 1865 the mine was again received within time limits. The mine was operational in 1873 and closed again in 1875. In 1887, consolidated the bill heritage Kamp bank with the bill Dreifußbank for colliery Dreifußbank & Heritage Kamp bank.

Tripod Bench and United Tripod Bench & Erbenkampsbank

The Dreifußbank colliery had been granted within a time limit since 1866, and the authorized ones included a length field . In 1868 the mine was put back into operation and 121 tons of hard coal were extracted. In the years 1871, 1873 and 1875 the mine was demonstrably in operation. The mine was closed from 1877 to 1879. In 1880 it was put back into operation again, there was a shaft available. From around 1882, work was presumably carried out in time limits and in 1887 the Dreifußbank colliery was shut down again. Between 1887 and 1904 the Dreifussbank colliery consolidated with the Erbenkampsbank colliery to form the United Dreifussbank & Erbenkampsbank colliery. The United Dreifussbank & Erbenkampsbank colliery was probably not in operation after the consolidation. In 1904 the right to the Langenbrahm colliery was slammed.

Promotion and workforce

The first workforce at Erbenkampsbank colliery dates from 1820, when 27 miners were employed in the mine, in 1830 only eight miners were employed. The first production figures come from the year 1834, with nine miners 16,786 bushels of hard coal were mined. In 1836 4,361 ⅜ Prussian tons of hard coal were mined. In 1841 the production sank to 17 ¾ Prussian tons. In 1843, 5550 bushels of hard coal were mined. In 1861, five miners mined 10,361 Prussian tons of hard coal. In 1867 25,796 bushels of coal were mined. The last known funding and workforce figures at the Erbenkampsbank colliery date from 1870, with five miners producing 574 tonnes of hard coal. After the mine had been consolidated into Vereinigte Dreifußbank & Erbenkampsbank, 19 miners extracted 1,844 tons of coal in 1871. In 1873 the workforce fell to 13 miners, and production also fell to 1695 tons. Further funding and workforce figures for the mine are not mentioned in the documents.
