Ishkooda 14 (Formerly Eureka 2) was a Tennessee Coal and Iron ore mine on Birmingham's Red Mountain. There are several feet of dirt/debris in front of the portal. TCI sealed the slope with a concrete plug when the mine was abandoned. 1895 denotes when mining began on the site and the 1941 date denotes upgrades or reopening after the Great Depression.
Redding was a 400-feet deep shaft mine that connected to the Songo slope mine. It was operational from 1917 - 1927 and is the only vent shaft iron ore mine on Red Mountain.
