Chanois Coal Mine

Before 1873, the Ronchamp coal mining company operated in the center of the Ronchamp and Champagney coalfields. But the shafts used for this task reached the end of their production life and had to be replaced. This was the role of the Magny and Chanois shafts."[http://www.abamm.org/lespuits.html Les puits de Ronchamp]" [https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.abamm.org%2Flespuits.html archive], on Les Amis du Musée de la Mine (accessed August 7, 2012).

Excavation of the latter began on August 25, 1873, with a useful diameter of 3.20 meters. The ventilation shaft was sunk 25 meters from the former, with a diameter of 2.20 meters. A 120-meter-high casing was added to mitigate the 300 hectoliters-per-hour inflow of water. In addition to the casing, Neut et Dumont pumps were installed.

On February 16, 1877, the shaft encountered coal at depths of 580 meters, but the layer was unusable. The drilling stopped at 588 meters in the transitional ground. Research was made impossible by heavy water inflows, and the shaft remained inactive until 1895.

Mining began in the 20th century, with production rising steadily from 100 tonnes a day in 1895 to 250 tonnes a day in 1900,Jean-Jacques Parietti 1999 (2), p. 15. and finally reaching 12,587 tonnes in 1901. Following restoration, the 120 hpÉdouard Thirria 1869, p. 186. Sainte-Pauline shaft winding engine was installed on the site, using special aloe wire ropes. This type of cable was used until the end of operations. The recette jour building was installed more than six meters above ground level, as evidenced by old postcards, plans, and the wide stone wall visible until 2014."[http://www.abamm.org/triage.html Le puits du Chanois]" [https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.abamm.org%2Ftriage.html archive], on Les Amis du Musée de la Mine (accessed on August 7, 2012).

The compressed air used at the Magny and Chanois wells was generated by two Burckardt compressors and an older Sommeiller compressor. By 1897, these had to be replaced by new five-cubic-meter compressors powered by a 150-horsepower steam engine.Jean-Jacques Parietti 1999 (2), p. 11.

In 1902, a pump and electric lighting were installed at the bottom.Jean-Jacques Parietti 2001, p. 48. Between 1904 and 1910, a fire raged at the bottom of the mine, causing no casualties.

In 1928, an assembly was dug to the Sainte Marie Coal Mine, and in 1929, the 1,500-meter-long "Cameroun" bowette (rock tunnel) linked it to the Notre-Dame shaft. These two shafts still had exploitable coal seams, but were not equipped for extraction. In 1933, the steam engine was replaced by an electric one."[http://www.abamm.org/jour11.html La machine électrique]" [https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.abamm.org%2Fjour11.html archive], on Les Amis du Musée de la Mine.

When the French coal industry was nationalized in 1946, under the impetus of the Provisional Government led initially by Charles de Gaulle, the Ronchamp coalfield was entrusted to Électricité de France (EDF), as it was too far from the other major coalfields and included a major thermal power station.Parietti 2001, p. 73.

The Chanois shaft closed in 1951, before the Arthur de Buyer Coal Mine. In 1958, both shafts were backfilled with shale and covered with a concrete slabs.Parietti et Petitot 2005, p. 12.

After closure, the installations were dismantled, and the muffler and air compressor were reassembled on the Etançon shaft.Parietti 2017, p. 17. The buildings were demolished between 1960 and 1963 to make way for the Germinal housing estate, comprising three blocks of flats."[http://www.abamm.org/triage03.html Vue sur la cité Germinal] " [https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.abamm.org%2Ftriage03.html archive], on abamm.org. All that remains is the ruined extraction building and the lamp factory, which retains its roof. The extraction building was finally demolished in 1980.Aerial photography missions available on Géoportail by year.

In the 2000s, the ruins consisted of the dilapidated lamproom building, a remnant wall from the well building, and several blocks of masonry and concrete in a wasteland strewn with bricks and stones. From 2011 to 2013, a construction site for six pavilions required the destruction of several remnants."[http://www.lepays.fr/haute-saone/2011/12/15/le-chanois-et-recologne-passes-sous-la-loupe Le Chanois and Recologne under the microscope]" [https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lepays.fr%2Fhaute-saone%2F2011%2F12%2F15%2Fle-chanois-et-recologne-passes-sous-la-loupe archive], on Le Pays.

The sorting-washing-screening workshops were built in 1898, replacing the small workshops from the Magny shaft. A coking plant was built between 1900 and 1920 to replace the furnaces in the Saint-Joseph shaft. It closed in 1933, while the rest of the installations remained in operation until the mines closed in 1958. The power station was operated by the Ronchamp coal mines from its construction between 1906 and 1907 until its nationalization in 1946, when it became the property of Électricité de France until its closure in 1958. The plant was expanded twice between 1910 and 1924, to reach a capacity of 30 MW. Annual production varied between 5 and 37 GWh until 1950."[http://www.abamm.org/centrale.html Les ateliers dans la plaine du Chanois]" [https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.abamm.org%2Fcentrale.html archive], on Les Amis du Musée de la Mine (accessed August 8, 2012).

The mining company town was built, in 1919, after World War I, initially to accommodate troops, before being used between 1923 and 1925 to house Polish immigrants. It consisted of small, temporary barracks that were still inhabited after the mine closed.Jean-Jacques Parietti 2010, p. 101."[http://www.abamm.org/citeou07.html La cité du Chanois]" [https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.abamm.org%2Fciteou07.html archive]. During the nationalization of the mine, the housing estate was the property of EDF, then taken over by the municipality, which rehoused the inhabitants elsewhere. It was demolished in early 1976 and replaced by a housing project in the northern part and a low-cost apartment (HLM) block in the southern part."[http://www.abamm.org/corons.html Les corons du quartier du Chanois] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230325101547/http://abamm.org/corons.html |date=2023-03-25 }}" [archive].

The Chanois shaft had a coal preparation plant, which also received products from the Magny and Arthur de Buyer Coal Mine, as well as the Etançon outcrops. As a result, there are numerous conical and flat slag heaps around these facilities, located on the Chanois plain."[http://www.abamm.org/terris01.html Image des terrils]" [https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.abamm.org%2Fterris01.html archive].

The spoil tips contain numerous fossils dating back to the Carboniferous period, and are unique because they group together plants living in a dry, mountain environment (Blackthorn, Ferns, Cordaites, and the first flowering plants, which are only found in the most recent layers) and in marshy lowland environments (Lepidodendron buttercup, Sigillaria, Calamites, Sphenophyllum), as well as freshwater fish.^[PDF] Yves Clerget, Once upon a time... an ancient landscape: the Ronchamp coal-mining forest, Educational Service of the Cuvier Museum in Montbéliard ([http://www.mineronchamp.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/3For--tHouill--re-Rchp2018.pdf read online [][https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mineronchamp.fr%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2014%2F12%2F3For--tHouill--re-Rchp2018.pdf archive]] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230128085952/http://www.mineronchamp.fr/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/3For--tHouill--re-Rchp2018.pdf |date=January 28, 2023 }}).

In the early 2000s, the SMPM association carried out an inventory of the mycoflora on the Chanois slag heaps area, which had been overtaken by birch and willow, discovering several rare species such as Pisolithus arhizus, Lactarius fuscus, and Stropharia rugosoannulata, demonstrating the importance of conserving these slag heaps.

In 2021, a project to build a 5.9-hectare photovoltaic power plant on the Chanois slag heaps was initiated jointly by the communes of Ronchamp and Magny-Danigon, with the support of the Rahin et Chérimont Communauté de Communes and the Pays de Lure Communauté de Communes, in collaboration with TotalEnergies and Altergie. The plant is to be located in two zones: the Ronchamp zone (2.6 hectares) will be set up at the top of the red slag heap, near the Chanois well and the former coal-fired power station -whose former substation will be used for power distribution- and the Magny-Danigon zone (3.3 hectares) will be located on the former slag heap sorted by Escaut-Énergie and mined for aggregates. Work is scheduled to start in 2023–2024, with commissioning scheduled for 2025. The project comprises a total of 9,256 potential modules with a maximum output of 4.99 MWp, enough to cover the electricity consumption of 3,480 inhabitants.Ch.L., "[https://c.estrepublicain.fr/environnement/2020/01/29/une-centrale-photovoltaique-sur-l-ancien-terril Une centrale photovoltaïque sur l'ancien terril]" [https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fc.estrepublicain.fr%2Fenvironnement%2F2020%2F01%2F29%2Fune-centrale-photovoltaique-sur-l-ancien-terril archive], in L'Est républicain, January 29, 2020 (accessed November 14, 2021)."[https://c.estrepublicain.fr/environnement/2021/11/07/une-centrale-photovoltaique-sur-les-terrils-en-projet Une centrale photovoltaïque sur les terrils en projet]" [https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fc.estrepublicain.fr%2Fenvironnement%2F2021%2F11%2F07%2Fune-centrale-photovoltaique-sur-les-terrils-en-projet archive], in L'Est républicain, November 7, 2021 (accessed November 14, 2021).Guillaume Minaux, "[https://c.estrepublicain.fr/environnement/2021/12/11/une-centrale-solaire-en-projet-au-puits-arthur-de-buyer Une centrale solaire en projet près de Lure]" [https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fc.estrepublicain.fr%2Fenvironnement%2F2021%2F12%2F11%2Fune-centrale-solaire-en-projet-au-puits-arthur-de-buyer archive], in L'Est républicain, December 11, 2021 (accessed December 15, 2021).
