The Glückauf colliery in the Gennebreck district of Sprockhövel is a former hard coal mine . Before 1754 the mine was called Zeche Glückauf in the Fliesloher Mountains and was generally known as the Zeche Glück-Auf . The Glückauf colliery was one of 19 Sprockhövel collieries, which were also known as Crone'sches Revier.

history

The beginning as Glückauf in the Fliesloh mountains

The mine was mentioned in the documents as early as the middle of the 17th century under the name Glückauf im Fliesloher Berg . The Glückauf colliery in the Fliesloher Berge was also called the Glückauf colliery in the Fluesloher Berge or the Glückauf colliery in the Fliesloher Berge . The colliery is probably identical to the Fliessloer Berg coal mine. On April 16 of the year 1650 it came to the general investiture of the coal mine Glückauf in Fluesloher mountains. In 1728, on March 6th, the Glückauf colliery in the Fluesloher mountains was given a loan. This loan was a confirmation of the loan from 1650. The loan was given to Hans Peter Fleißloh et Consorten. In 1737 tunnel construction was carried out, the colliery was the second largest colliery in Märkischen, in the following years the Prussian tax authorities were involved in the colliery. The Glückauf colliery was the first mine in which the Prussian state was directly involved. There is evidence that the colliery was in operation in 1750 and was also known as the Glückauf colliery. The mine was built in the seam Mühlerbank, which in this part of the seam was called Glückauf. In the years 1751 and 1753 the mine was in yield . From 1754 the colliery was only called the Glückauf colliery.

In 1754 the Prussian Treasury owned 3/4 of the Kux shares in the mine. In 1755, the Glückauf colliery was the second largest colliery in the Brandenburg mining district . At that time, Joh. Peter von Hagen was working as a shift supervisor at the mine. In the years 1756, 1758, 1760 and 1761 to 1763 the mine was in yield . In 1768 the coal reserves were exhausted. In the same year a deeper solution was planned through the Sieper & Mühler tunnel . In 1770 the colliery was out of service and in 1774 it was back in service. The colliery was in operation in 1784; it was dismantled in a tunnel above the Fahrentrapps Hof . There was still a coal height of 60 feet on the mine at that time. In July of the same year the mine was by the head of the Brandenburg district mining office, the Baron von Stein traveled . Vom Stein provided information in his protocol about the condition of the mine and the performance of the miners employed there . He advised the trades against using fire buckets to remove the weather from the mine . Instead, Vom Stein gave suggestions on how ventilation could be improved by installing and commissioning a weather oven . In 1785 the pit field was cleared by the Christsieper Stolln . The mine was measured on October 17th of the same year . In 1796 the mines Prince Ludwig, Prince Friedrich (shaft 15) and König (shaft 14) were mined. From this point on, the mine was part of the Obersteig Agats traffic area.

The further operation

In 1800 the Carolus and Rogiene shafts were in operation, in 1805 the Timmer and Moritz shafts. The Glückauf colliery was closed in December 1806. Before this year, the pit field was opened by the Herzkämper Erbstollen . In September 1838 the Glückauf colliery was put back into operation. In the same year was begun to the shaft Amalia intersect . The shaft reached a depth of 87 meters and was equipped with a cap for extraction . The shaft was the southernmost shaft of the Glückauf colliery. In 1841 it was partially merged with the Friedrich Wilhelm colliery to form the Glückauf & Friedrich Wilhelm colliery. In 1845 Schacht Richard was in mining . In 1850 it was mined in a tonnage shaft. In the shaft, which had a shallow depth of 28½ Lachtern, was also extracted for the United Concordia colliery . In 1852 the Heinrich shaft was in operation. The shaft was located west of today's Wuppertaler Straße, about 900 meters north of the Nockenbergstraße intersection, and was equipped with a horse peg . In 1855, a sole site was operated together with the United Concordia colliery; the site was at the level of the former temporary underground excavation site of the United Stock & Scherenberg colliery. The Sohlenort was in a westerly direction to a length of 438 Lach Tern in the seam Lehnbankstriepen ascended Service. The Lehnbankstriepen seam was 15 inches thick . This year too, the United Concordia colliery was funded in the Glückauf colliery shaft.

In 1856 a steam cap was set up at the Heinrich shaft. At that time the mine belonged to the Schlebusch mining area . In 1859 was on the civil sole of the colliery Stock & Scherenberg breakdown in civil engineering operated. At this time the mine was working above the bottom of the Herzkämper Erbstollen . One waited for the solution through the dirt bank Erbstollen . In 1862 the western base line reached a length of 348 laughs . The route had been driven in the Glückauf seam. The seam was thirty inches thick and had lumpy coal . To release the north saddle wing, a cross cut was made in the same year . The cross passage was placed 126 puddles east of the shaft cross passage and then driven 30 puddles. At that time the mine was part of the Sprockhövel mining area. On December 19, 1864 and August 28, 1865, the Glückauf collieries in the Fliesloher Berge, United Concordia, Buschbank and Nebenbuschbank as well as the south and north wings of the Friedrich Wilhelm colliery became the Glückauf colliery. In 1865 the Buschbank colliery was put back into operation with the authorized Nebenbuschbank. In 1866 the United Concordia construction site was given a time limit.

The last few years until the consolidation

In 1870 the pit field was cleared by the Dreckbänker Erbstollen. By this measure the carbon level was 175 meters seigerer height. In the same year, a coking plant was probably in operation on the Friedrich Wilhelm construction site. On February 4 of 1872 which was square box Glückauf acquired III, the square box was in 1867 awarded been and was still unverritzt. In 1876 the Heinrich shaft and a new shaft that was not named were in production. In the period from 1886 to 1889, a civil engineering shaft was in production on the mine. The shaft was equipped with a hoisting machine. In 1889, the excavation above the bottom of the tunnel was finished. On March 30 of that year, consolidated the bill Good luck with the pit Sieper & Mühler mines to mine heart Kämper trough .

Promotion and workforce

The first known production figures come from the years 1751 with 10,580 ringlets and 1753 with 11,663 ringlets hard coal. The first known workforce at the mine dates back to 1755, when 17 miners were employed in the mine. The first known production figures of the mine under the new mine name Zeche Glückauf come from the year 1756, 13,854 ringlets of hard coal were produced . In 1758 the production rose slightly to 13,892 Ringel coal. In 1760, production fell to 10,401 ringlets. In 1796, 1241 ringlets were mined each month. In 1805, 16,441 ringlets were mined. In 1840 7034 Prussian tons of hard coal were mined. In 1845, 45 miners extracted 5370 tons of hard coal. In 1855, the production was 27,800 Prussian tons of hard coal, this production was provided by 35 miners. In 1867 the production was 13,083 tons, in 1869 it sank to 10,299 tons. The maximum funding from the Glückauf colliery was achieved in 1872. This year 22,278 tons of hard coal were mined. From this point on, the mine sank from 10,829 tons in 1874 to 10,202 tons in 1875 and to 8,424 tons in 1880. In 1884, a little more than 10,000 tons of coal was extracted. In 1885, 70 miners extracted 9,770 tons of hard coal. The last known production and workforce figures for the mine are from 1888, in that year 52 miners were still employed at the mine, who produced 9943 tonnes of hard coal.

Current condition

There is not much left of the Glückauf colliery today. A deep ping still exists today from the Amalie shaft . The Göpel's abutment is in the pinge . This pinge is part of the Herzkämper-Mulde-Weg .

Remarks

  1. ↑ The Fließloer Berg coal mine was also called the Zeche Flußloer Banck. The mine is probably identical to the Glückauf colliery in the Fliesloher mountains. No major mining activities are known about the mine. In 1632, Johann Flüsloh was informed "that there was a coal mountain in his hereditary bush". According to the notification, this coal mountain had only been processed for a short time. On April 16, 1650, the Bergdirektor Achilles gave the property to Mr. Fließloh (formerly Flußloh, now called Flüsloh) and his son Peter. In feudal appearance the sentence was " your bite hero for use in würklichen wealthy coal mine ". In 1662 one came to the opinion " The bank is a bad Kohlberg and requires more equipment than it could produce ". (Source: Joachim Huske: The coal mines in the Ruhr area. )
