Mining history
In 1798 four speculations were made . The first three conjectures, which were inserted under the names dear girl , young daughter and worthy mother , were combined to form the water maid 1 conjecture . The fourth mutation was introduced under the name Wasserjungfer 2 . Here, too, there was a mutation under the other name Neue Steele . In 1839 the mine was mentioned in the documents. On May 17, 1845, the two Geviertfeld Water Maiden No. I and Water Maiden No. II were awarded . In 1855 the mine was on time . In 1857 the mine was back in operation. In 1858 the mine was still in operation, after which it was probably closed. In 1901, the right to the coal mine Eintracht Tiefbau was added.
