Bergbaubetrieb Drosen, Löbichau, Altenburger Land, Thüringen, Deutschland
The Drosen mining operation consisted of shafts 403, 412/412a, 415 and 416. Operations ceased in 1990 and all shafts were later filled in and flooded. The surface structures were demolished and only the headframe 403 was preserved as an industrial monument.
