The slag heap, also known as the Rungenberghalde, rises not far from the Schüngelberg mining settlement between the A2 motorway, Horster Strasse and Rungenbergstrasse to a height of 115.3 metres above sea level and around 68 metres above the surrounding area. This makes it one of the highest slag heaps in the Ruhr area. Its surface area is around 56 hectares. The slag heap is arched between the former Hugo I / IV and Hugo II / V / VIII mines.
