The answer is ADIT.
An adit is a horizontal or nearly horizontal passageway that is constructed to access an underground mine or colliery. Typically built at ground level or slightly below, an adit allows for the movement of miners, materials, and equipment in and out of the mine, and it also provides a route for ventilation.
Unlike shafts, which are vertical, adits are used in mining operations where the coal or minerals are located at relatively shallow depths, making the adit a more efficient means of access.
