After completing his secondary school examinations in 1911, he was accepted as a mining apprentice at the Zollverein coal mine industrial complex, in the district of Ost-Essen. Starting in 1912, he studied at the universities in T\u00fcbingen and Aachen in the fields of geology, mineralogy, mining engineering, mining law, and metallurgy, among others. During World War I he was deployed in French and Belgian mining companies. In 1918, Werner Tr\u00fcmpelmann finished his studies at the Technical University Aachen. On 15th August 1919, Tr\u00fcmpelmann was appointed by the Prussian mining authorities as junior civil servant for the mining industry, and on 15th October 1920, and obtained his Dr. phil. title at the philosophical faculty of the University Bonn. As a mine assessor, he was head of the water management office of the Westf\u00e4lische Berggewerkschaftskasse WBK (Westphalian Miners\u2019 Union Fund) in Bochum from 1921 to 1924. This new institution was established to answer questions regarding the channelling of water from coal mines and waste material as well as the sourcing of process water for the mines. During this brief period, Tr\u00fcmpelmann published significant papers on this topic based on his accumulated experience. In these papers, he concentrated both on the channelling of water from chalk covering layers, which is significant for mining but hadn\u2019t been studied much at the time, and on the formation of depression cones (Figure 2) due to the pumping of mine drainage water. After the water management office was closed in 1924, he took leave from the Upper Mining Authorities and assumed the role of chief operating director 1 for the Eschweiler Mining Association in Kohlscheid. To be able to maintain this position, Tr\u00fcmpelmann quit his civil service job in 1925.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7026\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7026\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/2025.mining-report.de\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/06\/KN_02_Karte_Ruhrgebiet_Absenkungstricher.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7026\" src=\"https:\/\/2025.mining-report.de\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/06\/KN_02_Karte_Ruhrgebiet_Absenkungstricher.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"699\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mining-report.de\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/06\/KN_02_Karte_Ruhrgebiet_Absenkungstricher.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/mining-report.de\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/06\/KN_02_Karte_Ruhrgebiet_Absenkungstricher-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mining-report.de\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/06\/KN_02_Karte_Ruhrgebiet_Absenkungstricher-768x537.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mining-report.de\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/06\/KN_02_Karte_Ruhrgebiet_Absenkungstricher-600x419.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7026\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fig. 2.
