The St. Paul colliery in Wetter-Schlebusch is a former hard coal mine . The mine was also known as the Zeche St. Paul am Schlebusch . According to the Niemeyer's map, the mine was located west of Gut Steinhausen. The mine belonged to the Märkisches Bergamts district and there to the Schlebusch jury area .
Mining history
On January 25, 1727, the loan was given. Following the mortgage, mining was carried out in a seam that was four feet thick . The seam in the opposite wing had already been processed by the St. Peter mine. On January 11, 1736, a length field was awarded . In 1739 the mine was out of order, on August 3rd of the same year the mine was surveyed . In 1754 the mine was on time due to a lack of sales. From 1755 the mine was back in operation for several years. In 1787 a joint tunnel was operated with the neighboring St. Peter mine . That year the St. Paul mine was listed on the Niemeyer's map. In 1800 the mine was out of order. In 1801, a joint venture with the St. Peter colliery was founded under the name Vereinigte St. Peter & St. Pauls Schacht . The purpose of this joint venture was to sink the union shaft . In the same year the sinking work began and in 1803 the union shaft was put into operation. The shaft had a depth of 33 3/8 holes and was equipped with a cap . The dismantling began in the same year. In 1805 the Adolphina shaft and the union shaft were in operation. In 1810 the Glückauf shaft and the union shaft were in operation. In July of the same year the mine was shut down. In 1830, that was mine field of the colliery St. Paul through the low-lying Schlebuscher Erbstollen solved . In November 1843 the mine was put back into operation. The promotion of the mine took place on the shaft of the coal mine Constance St. Peter. For this service, the St. Paul colliery had to cede 1/15 of the production to the St. Peter colliery, which is why the mine was also called St. Peter & St. Paul colliery at that time. In 1847, sales at the St. Paul colliery fell significantly, the reason for this being that the mine was in competition with the Trappe colliery. There is evidence that the mine was in operation between 1843 and 1855. The promotion took place via a seigeren shaft. The shaft had a depth of 72 laughs and was equipped with a steam cap . From the 2nd quarter of 1857, the mine was again placed in time limits. In 1874 the mine was put back into operation by the St. Peter colliery, the reason being a previously concluded contract with the St. Peter colliery. The dismantling was completed in October 1875. At the same time, the St. Paul mine was shut down.
Promotion and workforce
The first known production figures of the mine come from the year 1843, at that time 2216 bushels of hard coal were produced . The first workforce at the mine dates back to 1845, at that time two to five miners were employed at the mine who produced 18,204 bushels of hard coal. In 1847, two to five miners extracted a total of 18,542 bushels of hard coal. In 1855, nine miners extracted 1,408 tonnes of hard coal. The last mining and workforce figures for the mine are from 1874; 15 miners extracted 309 tons of hard coal.
