The Julius Philipp Erbstollen colliery was a hard coal mine in Bochum - Querenburg . The mine was also known as the Julius Philipp's Erbstolln colliery . The pit field of the Julius Philipp Erbstollen colliery was located south of the marl border . In the mine field of the colliery, unregulated near-surface mining was already being carried out before the official approval . The mine is named after the miner Julius Philipp Heintzmann at the time. The Julius Philipp colliery union was one of the founding members of the Rhenish-Westphalian coal syndicate .

Mining history

In 1783 the shift supervisor Chr. M. Friedrich put in the expectation for Julius Philipp's Erbstolln. However, the mining authorities initially rejected the creation of the tunnel . In 1833 a renewed request was made. On July 30, 1838, the Längenfeld fat men Michael and Mathildenglück as well as the hereditary tunnel fairness were awarded by the mining authorities . Commissioning took place in February 1839. In the Lottenbachtal, the Erbstollen was set up on the Stiepeler Bach. The tunnel mouth hole was located 500 meters below the Glücksburg tunnel. The driveway took place in a northerly direction. A siding to the horse-drawn towing railway of the Glücksburg colliery was laid. This horse-drawn towing railway ran in the immediate vicinity of the Julius Philipp Erbstollen colliery and led to the Ruhr. A coal store was set up on the Ruhr . On August 10th of that year the Heinrich Beilehn was awarded. In 1841 the tunnel was driven further, on October 13 of the same year the Längenfeld Otto was awarded.

Production began in 1842. In the years that followed, the mine had no shafts and was only equipped with daytime shovels for weather management . In 1843 the tunnel reached a length of around 400 meters. On April 19, 1845, the Geviertfeld Dicker Michael was awarded. The quarter field had an area of ​​0.4 km². On October 31, 1847, the further excavation of the tunnel was initially deferred . At that time, the tunnel was 628 meters long. The tunnel was further excavated at a later, unspecified time. At the time of the moratorium, 17 seams were exposed through the tunnel , of which seven in the east were already being mined. In the same year there was a consolidation of those entitled . In 1850 the length of the tunnel was already 740 meters. By this time, 22 seams had been exposed. The consolidation was confirmed by the state the following year. In the following years, the mining also took place in the mine field of God's blessing colliery .

In 1853 the quarter field Ferrum was awarded, the award was made for the mining of coal iron stone . In 1856 the tunnel reached a length of 932 meters. In the following year, the further excavation of the tunnel was deferred again with a length of 1251 meters. In 1860 the coal reserves above the bottom of the Erbstollen were depleted. The deposit was now further exposed via the deeper Egmont tunnel of the Glücksburg colliery. This tunnel opened up the authorized persons from the west and advanced in an easterly direction into the pit field of the God's blessing colliery. In the same year Friedrich II was awarded the quarter field. This field had an area of ​​one square kilometer. As a result of this award, the entire entitlement covered an area of ​​2.5 km². In 1863 the Julius Philipp Erbstollen colliery consolidated with the Glücksburg colliery and the Friedrich II Geviertfeld to form the Julius Philipp colliery.

Promotion and workforce

The first known production figures come from the year 1842, at that time a production of 22,732 bushels of hard coal was provided. In 1845 78,150 bushels of hard coal were mined. The first known workforce figures come from the year 1847, at that time 32 to 58 miners were employed at the colliery, who produced 106,280 bushels of hard coal. In 1850 13,109 tons of hard coal were mined. In 1855, 90,085 Prussian tons of hard coal were extracted ; 116 miners provided this extraction. In the following year, 18,147 tons of hard coal were mined. The last production and workforce figures are from 1860, in that year 64 miners extracted 12,997 tons of hard coal.
