The Hazard colliery in the Vormholz district of Witten is a former hard coal mine . The mine had already been in operation since 1726 and was shut down and reopened several times during its operation. The mine was located on the lower marrow of the Stralsund colliery .
history
The beginnings
The mine was in operation in 1726, in 1754 and 1755 it was preserved in time . After the seam had been loosened by a tunnel at the Stralsund colliery, on March 3, 1757, the mining authority submitted an appeal . The expectation was placed on a coal bank that had already been exposed through the deep Stralsund tunnel. The mother was Johann Dietrich Oberste Frielinghaus and Peter Jürgen Wegemann. On August 10th of the same year the conjecture was expanded by six measures in a westerly direction. On September 6th of the same year a length field was awarded . The mine ownership was awarded under the name Hazard to Johann Dietrich Oberste Frielinghaus and Peter Jürgen Wegemann. The only seam that is mentioned is the Kreftenscheer seam. In the years 1758 and 1759 the mine was in operation north of today's Altenhöfen street. In 1771 the mine was still in operation. On February 28 of the same year, Peter Jürgen Wegemann and the widow Oberste Frielinghaus, represented by Johann Henrich Oberste Frielinghaus, were registered as trades in the records of the Mining Authority. At this point in time, the mine had already been measured, and the trades had paid the legal fees due . In February 1825, an old tunnel in the Hardenstein valley was cleared and put back into operation. The mine was closed on September 15, 1827. In 1828 the Zeche Hazard merged with the Zeche Stralsund to form the Zeche Hazard & Stralsund . The reason for this association was the joint mining of the deposit . In 1830 the mine field was loosened via a crosscut . The cross passage was driven from the Stralsund colliery and was 26 meters long. After the excavation, operations began.
The other years
After the mine went into operation, intensive mining activities took place in the Hazard field. In 1831 the Heinrich shaft was dismantled, the shaft was equipped with a gopel and belonged to the Stralsund colliery. The association with the Stralsund colliery was dissolved again before 1832. In 1836, operations to the west of the Muttenbach began; the Heinrich Göpel shaft was still used. There was a major geological fault and multiple faults in this field . Despite these disturbances, coal was mined in the field. From January 1843, the Hazard colliery was set in time limits and closed from March 1 of the same year. From May 29, 1854 to October 18, 1856 , the Hazard colliery consolidated below the St. Johannes Erbstollen sole to form the Herberholz colliery . Before 1865 the mine was in operation again for a short time. The mine was probably in operation again for a short time in 1935, after which there is no information about the mine.
Promotion and workforce
The first known production figures come from 1833, when 46,124 bushels of hard coal were produced. In 1835 the production dropped to 26,014 bushels. The only known number of employees comes from the year 1838, with nine miners a production of 7962½ tons of Prussian hard coal was provided. In 1840, 6556¼ tons of coal were mined from Prussia. The last known production figures of the mine come from the year 1842, in that year 9,495 Prussian tons of hard coal were produced.
Hazard & Stralsund
The Zeche Hazard & Stralsund in Witten Vormholz was also called Zeche Vereinigte Hazard & Stralsund or Zeche Stralsund & Hazard . The colliery was created in 1828 by merging the two collieries Hazard and Stralsund for joint dismantling. This fellowship only lasted four years. As early as 1829 the operation was stopped and before 1832 the operating community was dissolved again and both mines were again in operation separately.
Small mine Hazard
A small mine called Hazard was operated in Vormholz for several months, and Willi Paschen owned the mine. It is not clear whether this small mine, which was operated as a tunnel, was operated on the pit field of the Hazard mine. The Hazard mine began operations on December 1, 1951, and 194 tons of hard coal were mined with five miners. In the following year, operations were stopped again on November 15th. On February 15, 1954, the miners deregistered the small mine.
