Compagnie des mines de Dourges

Compagnie des mines de Dourges is a French mining company based in Paris, founded in 1855, dissolved in 1946.¹ It was founded by Louis-Georges Mulot.¹

Das Verbundbergwerk Hénin-Liétard (fr: Groupe d'exploitation d'Hénin-Liétard) entstand 1946 am Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs im Rahmen der Verstaatlichung der französischen Steinkohlenindustrie durch die Houlliers Bassin Nord – Pas-de-Calais (HBNPC) aus den Bergwerken von Dourges, Courrières und Drocout. Dabei kam es zu einigen Neuzuschnitten zwischen diesem Verbundbergwerk und demjenigen von Oignies.² From the German Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0
