Is an old working under a property here?

The mine records hold 1 mine site inside the city or town limits: 1 prospect or occurrence that was never worked. The mineral the records name is Lead.

A point in either file is a location, not a property line: the sheet shows the opening on the surface, not the rooms under it. The record that shows what runs under a parcel is the mine map. The OSMRE National Mine Map Repository holds scanned underground mine maps and answers requests for a named mine or an area. Coal was mined in Iowa from the 1840s to 1994.
