The degraded barium sulfate was mostly freed of the impurities by women for days, and sent in chunks or finely ground. Either from Partenstein train station or by ship transport on the Main from Lohr.
In 1836 an 18-year-old spar cleaner had a fatal accident when a pit collapsed and the woman fell down the shaft.
The mining of barite was stopped in 1948 when lightning struck the headframe.
