Chemical mines WW1

Hello everyone! I recently read a book on the history of landmines, which mentioned that both German and British forces used chemical mines during World War I. The author noted that the Germans deployed mustard gas mines to booby-trap underground structures during retreats. I also came across a photo of a document on the 'PAGES 14-18' forum that seems to show a drawing of such a German mine. I would be grateful for any additional information on this topic.
