The Verlorene Posten colliery in Borbecke is a former hard coal mine in Witten -Borbachtal. The mine was also known as the Zeche Verlohrener Posten in Borbecke . The mine is not identical to the Verlorene Posten colliery in Witten . The mine belonged to the Märkisches Bergamts district and there to the jury area Ostlich Witten .
Mining history
In 1766 an application was made for the award of a tunnel that had fallen out of the mountain . The tunnel had previously been awarded under the name Niederste Frielinghausbank, but was given up again and later fell into the mountain free. In 1774 a length field was measured . On November 4th of the same year a mine field was awarded for mining in the Kreftenscheer seam. Following the award, the mine was put into operation. Two tunnels were operated. The tunnel mouth holes were located near the south bank of the Hammerteich. Furthermore, two tonnage shafts were put into operation. One shaft was on the south and the other on the north wing of the mine field. The shafts were 33 laughs apart. The mine was in operation from 1806 to 1811. In 1812 the south wing had already been dismantled 200 puddles in an easterly direction. The north wing was also dismantled to the east by 350 Lachter. In 1832, most of the mining was finished, and the mine was closed that year. In 1849 the tunnel in the south wing was put back into operation. In 1855 the south wing was dismantled. The mine was thus right next to the previous one. There was a seam with a thickness of 36 inches in Verhieb taken. In 1858 the colliery is no longer mentioned in the documents. On March 12 of the following year , the mine lost items in the Borbecke with further mines to the mine Borbecker Tiefbau.
Promotion and workforce
The first known conveyor numbers of the mine derived from 1799, then 36,028 were Ringel coal promoted. In 1801 13,265 Ringel coal was mined. In 1855, 20,614 Prussian tons of hard coal were mined. This funding was provided by 14 miners . These are also the last known production and workforce figures for the mine.
