The Hagensieperbank colliery in Haar, part of the Querenburg district of Bochum , is a former hard coal mine . The mine was also known under the names Zeche Hagen Sieperbank and Zeche Hagensieperbänke . The mine belonged to the Märkisches Bergamts district and there to the jury area Westlich Witten .
Mining history
A length field was awarded on August 20, 1832 . In January of the following year, the mine in Lottental was put into operation. The mine was located southwest of the Klosterbusch colliery. From June 1835, the mine field was only further aligned . In 1840, the mining authority's documents mentioned a deep bottom and an upper tunnel. In 1845 the third level was in operation. In 1855 the length of the tunnel was 465 pods . There were four seams with different thicknesses in Verhieb . Each seam was a different thickness, between 30 and 70 inches . The railroad from the Glücksburg colliery to the coal storage facility on the Ruhr was used to transport the coal . In 1858 the Hagensieperbank colliery was still operating independently. On March 18, 1865 , the Hagensieperbank colliery with the Gibraltar colliery consolidated the Erbstollen to form the United Gibraltar Erbstollen Colliery .
Promotion and workforce
The coal mined from the mine was strongly baking. The first production figures come from the year 1835, 5256 bushels of hard coal were produced . In 1840 6047¾ tons of Prussian hard coal were mined. In 1845 the production rose to 36,919 Prussian tons of hard coal. The first workforce dates from 1847, there were between one and eighteen miners working on the mine who produced 31,676 bushels of hard coal. The last known production and workforce figures for the mine come from the year 1855, with 63 miners 41,296¾ Prussian tons of hard coal were produced.
Current condition
