The Arthur de Buyer Coal Mine or coal mine #11 was one of the major Ronchamp coal mines, which is in the area of the city Magny-Danigon in the French region of Franche-Comté. Dingging start in 1894 to ensure the future of the company (in a difficult position at this time). The project is directed by Leon Poussigue, director of the company since 1891. He is responsible to organize the excavation, design buildings and install each machine. The seat is named to tribute of Arthur de Buyer (the same family of the De Buyer owner), the president since 1876. He retired during the commissioning activity of the mine.
