The Nottekampsbank I colliery in Essen-Heisingen is a former hard coal mine . The mine is from a division of Berechtsame the colliery Notte Kamp Bank emerged.

Mining history

In the period from January 24th to September 29th, 1880, the rights of the United Nottekampsbank colliery were divided into Nottekampsbank I and Nottekampsbank II. The Nottekampsbank I area was valid up to the 2nd level and was continued under the name Nottekampsbank I colliery run an independent mine. The second level was at a depth of 166 meters (−96 m above sea ​​level ). The Hercules shaft served as a mining and weather shaft. Already after 1883 the coal reserves of the deposit decreased. In 1886, mining above the 2nd level was largely over. The mine was closed before February 23 of the same year. Reasons for the measure were, on the one hand, high water inflows of up to 8.4 m 2 pit water per minute and, on the other hand, the expected penalties . In the same year the right to the Heisinger Tiefbau colliery was added, the shafts of the Nottekampsbank I colliery were given up. On August 9, 1921, the mine in the area of ​​Wuppertaler Strasse was put back into operation. In the same year, work began on sinking a new shaft . In October 1923 operations were stopped again. At the beginning of 1924, the Nottekampsbank I colliery was finally closed.

The maximum production of the mine was achieved in 1883. This year, 82,243 tons of hard coal were mined, the workforce was 277 employees. In 1885, 174 miners extracted 66,455 tons of hard coal. In 1886 there were still 27 employees on the mine, 3179 tons of hard coal were extracted. In 1921, 97 miners extracted 4,929 tons of hard coal.
