Le puits Simon 3

In the 1920s-1930s, the size of the mine fields necessitated the creation of a new ventilation shaft. In the 1950s, the shaft was deepened from 350 to 450 meters. Later, in 1978-1979, the Simon 3 shaft was deepened to 843 meters. In 2001, the recipe was demolished and the shaft closed.
