Is an old working under a property here?
The mine records hold 6 mine sites inside the city or town limits: 2 past producers, now closed, 3 prospects or occurrences that were never worked, 1 site producing when the record was made; the old survey maps add 13 holes drawn inside the city or town limits, 0 of them shafts or tunnels. The minerals the records name are Ball Clay; Clay.
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. Tennessee's coal regulatory program was run by OSMRE until the state took it back; the state AML program is in TDEC.

Named workings recorded in Paris (6 shown, 13 unnamed on the map)
Paris sits over the Mississippi Region coal field and the coal there is lignite, worked mostly at the surface. The two federal files record a shaft, an adit or a deposit where one was drawn on a survey sheet or catalogued as a site; neither file carries the outline of the workings, so the counts above are not the measure of what was mined under this town. The record that shows it is the mine map, held by TDEC Mining, Data and Map Viewers and linked below.
Tennessee abandoned mine maps ranks every county and town in the state by the workings recorded inside it, names the office that holds the mine maps, and says what to do if the ground moves.
