history

The beginnings

Around the year 1745 the suspicion was inserted. A survey was carried out on November 2, 1747 . The colliery was already in operation in 1754. Already at the beginning of 1755 the mine was closed in time limits . On January 12, 1757, the mining license was granted . Johann Wilhelm Crone and other unnamed contributors were enfeoffed . In 1757, Johann Wilhelm Crone, Moritz Wibbecke, Johann Adolph Crone and Johann Wiethaus were registered as trades in the records of the Mining Authority. In the years 1758 and 1759, 1761 and 1762 as well as 1771 and 1786 the mine was demonstrably in operation. In 1771 the reserve money of the mine was paid. On April 16, 1771, Johann Wilhelm Crone, Johann Diedrich Wibbecke, the widow Crone (wife of the late Johann Adolph Crone), Friedrich Crone and the widow of Bernhard Henrich Crone were registered as trades in the documents of the mining authority. According to Friedrich Crone, Johann Wiethaus's share had been bought by his father.

The other years

In 1786 coal was delivered to the Königsborn saltworks . In 1797 Schacht Wilhelmine went into promotion . From April 1799, the Kirschbaum colliery became St. Moritz colliery No. 2 called. Presumably the mine was shut down afterwards, because in February 1814 the mine was put back into operation. The reduction was carried out at the bay Caroline. This shaft belonged to the St. Moritz colliery. From the second quarter of 1815, only the mine field was aligned . After that, dismantling was carried out at times, and at times the mine was also within deadlines. In 1818 the Friedrich shaft was mined, and from May of the same year the mine was again within deadlines. From 1821 onwards, dismantling began again, after which operations were frequently deferred . The moratorium and dismantling alternated one after the other. In 1825, mining continued to be carried out only temporarily. In 1830 the mine had a capacity of 3800 Prussian tons per year. Again only temporary dismantling took place. In November 1833 the mine was closed. On November 2, 1841 , the Kirschbaum colliery consolidated with other mines to form the Crone colliery.
