The beginnings

The tunnel was built in 1733 . The tunnel mouth hole was between Kley and Somborn. It was at Schmechtingsbach at a depth of (m + 105 NN applied), subsequently was studs south ascended . A small amount of coal was mined during the excavation. The tunnel was driven to a total length of 730 Lachter , then the mine was probably closed within deadlines . In the year 1767 a new test was made . In 1783 the mine mine was put back into operation. The mine was measured on November 12th, 1790 . On December 30th of the same year the mining authorities demarcated the mine from the Steinbergerbank colliery . From 1796 the mine was in operation for several years.

The other years

On May 5th, 1801, the mine was surveyed again. This was followed by the demarcation of the mine from the coal mine Stephansbank . In 1805 the tunnel was driven further south. In 1810 the Hoffmann shaft was dismantled . In 1815, the tunnel was driven further and the mining took place in the area of the Siegfried shaft. In 1820 the Hope Shaft, the Georg Shaft and the Paul Shaft were in operation. In 1822, during the excavation work for a new shaft, the overburden , which partly consisted of marl , was pierced. In 1825 a section was excavated below the marl cover. This year, the bay Müller was promoting . In 1827 the tunnel reached a length of 638 laughs . In this year the length fields Friedrich and Siebenplaneten were awarded . In addition, in the same year Erbstollengerechtigkeit awarded for the tunnel.

The last few years

The Christian shaft was in operation from 1830 to 1835. From February 1835, the mine was closed for several years. From September 1840 the mine was put back into operation. At that time, the mine already had several tunnel shafts and several weather shafts . At the end of the following year the mine was closed. In 1845 the tunnel was opened again. On March 23, 1848, the Längenfeld Seven Planet Continuation was awarded. From March of the following year, the further excavation of the tunnel was stopped. From then on the whole mine was idle. In 1852 the two Eisensteinfeld New World and Hope were awarded. In 1857, consolidated the bill Seven planets Erbstolln with other mines and mine fields to mine seven planets .

Promotion and workforce

The first production figures date from 1830, 16,009 bushels of hard coal were produced . In 1835, 1248 bushels of hard coal were mined. In 1840 the production was 1385 ¼ Prussian tons of hard coal. In the following year the production rose to 3709 ⅞ Prussian tons of hard coal. The first known workforce figures date from 1845, when two miners were employed at the mine. These are also the last known figures for the mine.
