history

The beginnings

In 1791 the old legal union Petrus Segen was founded. The mine was founded in the same year and started operating in the same year. A length field was awarded on October 5, 1793 . Before 1800, operations were stopped again. In 1919 the mine was back in operation for a short time.

The other years

In 1942 the mine was put back into operation after a long period of inactivity. It has begun a tonnlägigen shaft to sink . The shaft was south of Hattingen stated . During the sinking work, old mine workings were approached at a depth of 160 meters . These mine workings were the works of the previous mine, which had ceased operations at the beginning of the 20th century. The mine was shut down again. In June 1945 the mine was put back into operation. In 1946 there was a tonnage shaft with a total depth of 80 meters. The bottom was at a shallow depth of 35 meters. The rights holders covered an area of 0.6 km ² . In 1950 the digging of a seigeren shaft began. The following year, the well was at a depth of 63 meters in promoting taken. The production in the tonnage shaft was then ended. The shaft was also used for ventilation . In the course of the further years of operation, six weather forecastles were built one after the other. In 1952, the construction site had the dimensions of 1,200 meters by stroking and 450 meters across. As of 1956, there were two operating facilities. From 1959 the main seam was mined . In 1961, the barrel-length shaft sunk in 1950 was abandoned. At this point in time there were four weather storms. In 1962 the company was closed. On March 18, 1963, the Petrus Segen colliery was shut down. In the same year, a small mine named Zeche Hauptflöz was put into operation on the construction site .

Promotion and workforce

Lean coal was extracted and extracted from the mine . The first production and workforce figures come from 1919, in that year 116 miners were employed at the colliery, who produced 160 tons of hard coal every day. In 1945, 1,066 tons of hard coal were mined, the workforce was eleven employees. In 1950 there were 109 employees in the mine, the production amounted to 34,189 tons of hard coal. The maximum production was achieved in 1952, with 116 employees 46,230 tons of hard coal were produced. In 1955, 133 people were employed at the mine, the production amounted to 37,720 tons of hard coal. In 1956, 143 employees produced 28,495 tons of hard coal. In 1958 around 37,000 tons of hard coal were extracted. In 1960 39,155 tons of hard coal were mined. The last production and workforce figures are from 1962, when 10,199 tons of hard coal were mined with 36 employees.
