The Mühlmannsdickebank colliery is a former hard coal mine in Essen-Heisingen . The colliery was also known as the Mühlmanns Dickebank colliery .
history
The beginnings
Hard coal was already being mined here in the 18th century . On March 8, 1792, the Abbot of Werden granted the concession to mine coal . As trades of the new mine Heinrich Luthen, William Sears and Henry Sears were the Bergbuch entered. The concession was granted to the Mühlmannsdickebank seam of the same name . The seam was between the two mines Flor and Fledermaus. On January 10, 1802, Wilhelm Mühlmann sold two Kuxe to Heinrich Mühlmann. On October 12th of that year, the union put forward a guess at the depths of the mine. May 30th, 1836, was the date for the inspection . On this date, the trades were able to present a bared seam with a thickness of 36 inches . The site was located at a distance of 192 Lachtern from Mühlmanns-Kotten. A length field was awarded on September 17 and October 5 of the same year . In the course of the following years the mine was closed.
The other years
In 1855 the mine was presumably re-established and put back into operation. The mine manager was Arnold Oertgen. The rightful encompassed a length field . On April 5th of the same year the widow of the shift supervisor Cristian Kahrmann sold three Kuxe to the mine manager and still kept 4 1/7 Kuxe in her possession. There is evidence that mining was carried out in 1856. In 1858, a deeper solution followed through civil engineering at the Flor & Flörchen colliery . In 1860 was the first civil sole Zeche Flor & Flörchen mined at a depth of 97 meters, the promotion of coal took place in major depression Bausch Eight of the coal mine Flor & Flörchen. In 1865 the mine was demonstrably still in operation. From April 1870 the Mühlmannsdickebank colliery was shut down. In 1872 , the Mühlmannsdickebank colliery consolidated with other mines to form the United Flor & Flörchen colliery .
Promotion and workforce
The first known production and workforce figures for the mine date back to 1861. In that year, 20 miners extracted 40,785 tons of Prussian coal. In 1867, 31 miners extracted 217,589 bushels of hard coal. The last known production and workforce figures for the mine are from 1869, when 6013 tons of hard coal were extracted with 21 miners.
