The Neuglück & Stettin colliery in Witten- Mutental is a former hard coal mine . The mine was also known as the Stettin & Neuglück colliery . According to Niemeyer's map, it was located in the Muttental municipal forest in the area of ​​today's fire station and west of today's Berghauser Strasse. The Stettin gallery is now part of the Muttental mining trail .

history

The beginnings

From 1758 the mine was in operation under the name Zeche Neuglück , also known as Zeche Neue Glück or Zeche Neuglück Court of Herbede . In 1770 a mutation was made on the seams Mausegatt and Mausegatt lower bank. The mother was Johann Caspar Dürholt, Johann Peter Kickut and Peter Caspar Hilby. The mother coveted a mine field the size of a treasure trove and 20 dimensions . The Mutern was forbidden from any coal mining until inspection . On August 28 of that year, the staff responsible mining authority to Bergmeister Heintzmann to cause the inspection. The mother was informed of the order from the mining authority on August 31 of the same year. The inspection took place on November 21 of the same year. On December 12 of the year 1770 were as trades Johann Caspar Dürholt, Johann Peter Kickut and Peter Caspar Hyby in the documents entered the mining authority. On March 11, 1772, the enfeoffment was approved by a rescript from Berlin, and the concession was granted at the same time. On May 8 of 1772 which was Langenfeld Neuglück & Stettin for the reduction in the seam Mausegatt awarded . A mine field with a coal bank extending to the west was mortgaged. The field was the size of a treasure trove and 20 measures. The enfeoffed mine field extended from the Muttental to the Hardensteiner Tal. In 1787 the mine was entered on the Niemeyer's map. There was a tunnel west ascended . After the mine had been operated on a small scale for a few years, the mining authority withdrew the mining permit from the trades . The reason for this measure lay in the two seams of Anclam and Arrival. These two seams lay above Mausegatt and Mausegatt lower bench and had to be dismantled first on the instructions of the mining authority. From 1796 the mine was closed. This condition lasted until the 19th century. In 1811 the St.-Johannes-Erbstollen reached the mine field.

The other years

In 1824 the mine was put back into operation under the new name Zeche Neuglück & Stettin. In the meantime, the tunnel had been driven so far that the ventilation through a shaft had to be improved. In November of the same year was begun to the shaft Wilhelm intersect . The shaft was sunk into the seam in tons. Shaft Wilhelm was initially equipped with a reel for shaft extraction . Under certain weather conditions, the weather in the mine workings changed . The mine field was aligned in 1825 and mining began in the same year. The promotion of the mined coal was provided via a tunnel into Muttental. This tunnel was located west of the Muttenbach . The tunnel was continued in the seam Mausegatt ascended . In 1830 the Wilhelm shaft was sunk deeper. In 1835 the Wilhelm Göpelschacht reached to the bottom of the St. Johannes Erbstollen . The shaft now had a depth of 57 laughs . In the same year the Wilhelm shaft was equipped with a cap . The coal extracted was transported over days by carters to the Bergisches Land . In order to take care of the carters, the “ Zur alten Tür ” inn was built near the mine .

The water solution now took place via the St. Johannes Erbstollen. In the same year, production through the tunnel into the Muttental was stopped. From 1836 onwards, mining took place in the Gerhard mine for several years. The Gerhard shaft was located 300 meters east of the Wilhelm shaft and had been sunk to the bottom of the tunnel over several tons. The Gerhard shaft was also equipped with a göpel. In 1843, the coal reserves at the Wilhelm shaft were reduced. In 1850 the mine was closed. The horse peg from Schacht Gerhard was dismantled and then sold. In the period from May 29, 1854 to October 18, 1856 , the Neuglück & Stettin colliery consolidated below the bottom of the St. Johannes Erbstollen to form the Herberholz colliery . The purpose of this consolidation was the transition to civil engineering . The mine was put into operation on November 2nd, 1926. The purpose of this re-commissioning was the remaining mining of the deposit above the bottom of the St. Johannes Erbstollen. In the same year the two shafts Paul and Hugo were sunk. Both shafts were sunk to a depth of 35 meters. In addition, two tunnels were in operation. In 1934 the Neuglück & Stettin colliery was shut down again. On April 9 of the same year, the miners deregistered. In the same year, all day openings were closed and the barrel, which took several tons, was filled . After the Second World War was in the pit box by the small mine operated for a few years remaining mining colliery Neuglück II.

Promotion and workforce

The first production figures come from the year 1830; 1836 tonnes of hard coal were produced. In 1835, the production was 2514 tons of hard coal. In 1840, 3216 tons of hard coal were mined. The first workforce dates from 1845, there were between 9 and 16 miners working on the mine who produced 37,024 bushels of hard coal. In 1847 between eight and eleven miners were working on the mine, the production in that year was 31,672 bushels of hard coal. In 1926 a miner produced 228 tons of hard coal. In 1929 eleven miners extracted 3,410 tons of hard coal, which was also the maximum extraction of the mine. In 1930, five miners extracted 944 tons of hard coal. The last known production and workforce figures for the mine are from 1934, with four miners producing 945 tonnes of hard coal.
