Mining history
Several awards took place in 1793, 1795 and 1798 . In 1832 a joint tunnel was operated with the Quetterbank colliery . At first, prospecting work was carried out, from May of the same year the Great Bovermannswiese colliery was shut down. After the mother seam was opened up by the communal tunnel in 1840 , the mine was put back into operation in September of the same year. In the same year mining began and a coal deficit was created on the Ruhr. On June 6, 1846, the Große Bovermannswiese colliery was shut down again due to a lack of sales. On June 14, 1849, two length fields were awarded.
