The beginnings
The mine was already in operation in 1740. This year two Freikuxe were awarded. On June 9, 1746, Johann Melchior Küper sold a quarter of his share to Johann Henrich Niermann. On May 23, 1752, Johann Caspar Hundicker acquired half of the shares from Johann Melchior Küper. In the following time Johann Melchior Küper involved Caspar Bröcking with half of his remaining shares. The general award ceremony took place on June 23, 1752 .
