The Stuchtey colliery was a hard coal mine in the Witten district of Annen in the Borbachtal. The mine was also known as the Stuchthey colliery and the Stuchtei colliery . The Stuchtey colliery is the oldest known mine in the Borbachtal. The mine belonged to the Brandenburg mining authority district and there to the Hörde mining area . The Stollenmundloch the mine was located, according to the Niemeyerschen map in the area of the path Krumme rotation.

history

The beginnings

In 1736, Schade et al . Were given a scuff slip to expose a coal bank that had been struck off in the Hoerde district. After the seam was exposed, was carried out the inspection of reference. The mine ownership was granted in 1738 . A length field was awarded for mining in the Mausegatt seam. The three farmers Prein, Korfmann and Schade from Annen were registered as trades . A third of the Kuxe remained in the possession of the Prussian state. The mine was in operation from 1739. Most of the trades worked underground in their mine. Six years later, in 1744, the associated mine field was measured . After the survey, the mine was still in operation. The Kuxe of mine were in 1750 mostly to the State of Prussia . In 1768, the tunnel was driven further , but there was no dismantling. On March 2 of 1771 were as trades Johann Schade, Bernhard Korffmann, Heinrich Prein and the Prussian king in the Bernhard Schade to Annen, documents entered the mining authority. With the exception of the Prussian king, whose share was twice as high, the trades each had the same number of kuxes.

The other years

Railway in the Stuchtey tunnel

In 1784 the mine was by the head of the Mark Berg Revieres, the Baron von Stein , navigate . At the time of the visit, a new shaft was sunk . Vom Stein provided further information about the condition of the mine in his protocol. In particular, he criticized the fact that the Gedingehauer had to buy their toughness and also the explosives and the light themselves. He instructed the trades to purchase this and make it available to the tusks for a lease fee. In 1789, shaft no. 5 was sunk. He was in the field of road from Bochum to Herdecke and Hagen stated . Today the site of the house at Ardeystraße 191 is located there. This shaft was of great importance for the mine as it was located on an important road. In 1790 the Stuchtey colliery was entered on the Niemeyersche map . According to the map, the mine had several tunnels and several shafts at the time. In 1796 the area of ​​shaft 6 was mined. In 1799 the Rudolph shaft was sunk. The shaft was set up north of today's Eckardstrasse.

In 1800 the dismantling of the Rudolph shaft took place. From August 1803 the mine was closed in time limits . In November 1805 the mine was put back into operation. In 1806, a new tunnel with a slight gradient was started. From February 1809, the mine was again put into time limits. The tunnel, which was excavated from 1806, was used to drain the pit water from the field of the Hamburg & Vollmond colliery . From June 1831 the mine was put back into operation. The sinking work on shaft 5 was resumed and the shaft was sunk deeper. In addition, the shaft was equipped with a horse peg. In 1832 the horse peg was put into operation. The Göpel was used together with the coal mine Hamburg Amts Hörde. Coke was first produced in the mine in 1837 . A so-called open kiln was used for coking . This made the Stuchtey mine one of the earliest coke producers in the Ruhr area . The removal of the pit water through the Franziska Erbstollen started in 1838. This enabled the trades at the Stuchtey colliery to mine lower-lying coal reserves.

The last few years, shutdown and takeover

The Göpelschacht was in operation in 1840. Five years later, shaft no. 5 and the Göpel shaft were in operation. In 1848 the mine was again laid in time limits. From July 1852, only the remaining pillars were dismantled . In July 1855 the Stuchtey colliery was shut down. Before the year 1866, the length field of Stuchtey was covered by the quarter field of the Tuchsen colliery below the bottom of the tunnel . In 1870 part of the field was acquired by the United Hamburg mine. In 1872, consolidated the bill Stuchtey with the bill Hamburg for colliery in Hamburg . In 1894 the Stuchtey colliery was completely taken over by the United Hamburg colliery.

Promotion and workforce

The first known workforce dates from 1754, when three miners were employed in the mine. The first production figures come from the year 1832, in that year 27,128 bushels of hard coal were produced . In 1835 almost 3000 tons of hard coal were extracted. In 1837 the production was 15,947 Prussian tons of hard coal. In 1840 11,713 3/4 tons of hard coal were mined. In 1845, six to eleven miners extracted 27,435 bushels of hard coal. In 1847 39,647 bushels of hard coal were mined, the number of employees was up to 14 miners. In 1855, 6,364 Prussian tons of hard coal were mined. These are the last known sponsorship and workforce figures.
