Mining history
On February 27, 1845, two length fields were initially awarded . In 1854 the mine was in operation and the coal was transported over the surface to the coal depot on the Ruhr near the Herbeder lock. In the years 1855, 1858 and 1863 the colliery was demonstrably in operation. In 1865 the colliery was initially still in operation, but was then shut down. From September 1880 the mine was in operation for a short time - a shaft had to be sunk . From February 1, 1921, it was restarted via a tunnel . On November 1, 1923, the Gekrönte Antonia colliery was shut down.
Promotion and workforce
The first known production and workforce figures for the mine come from the year 1855, when 22 miners were employed at the colliery, who produced 7,713 Prussian tons of hard coal . In 1921, 13 miners extracted 197 tons of hard coal. The maximum production of the mine was achieved in 1922 with 18 miners, 1770 tons of hard coal were produced.
