From May of 1832 was a cross heading southwards ascended . The Berechtsame included at this time two length fields . This year four miners were employed at the mine. In 1834 a conveyor tunnel was excavated. That year, four miners were still employed at the mine. In 1836, 4695 3/4 tons of coal were mined from Prussia . The coal was stored in the coal store on the Ruhr . In the following year, the production rose to 8551 ½ Prussian tons of hard coal. In 1840, 1913 tons of hard coal were initially mined.
