It's amazing to me to think that when that mine was in full operation there wasn't a tree to be seen on any of those mountain sides. Mother Nature always reclaims. Excellent video

Visited Overton No. 1 in early 70’s. Portal was open then but the roof looked so unstable I didn’t far inside. Iron bridge running over the Cahaba River was still intact then. And the mine commissary just off Overton Road still exists no more than a mile from Overton No. 1. Never visited No. 2. It must be upstream from No.1.

So they own the portal? Since it is sealed who would make the call and give an ok to reopen?

Were the entries blocked or cemented off behind the bars?

The main portal and Manway are definitely sealed, forever.
