Biggest mine in Timna. Continues 2 km along the valley walls direction towards south. Many flat mining markings, led, copper and oxidized iron (in forms of osiified wood). Mostly Lb-IA but also evidence of shallow Chalco-EB mining

Site 254C is a proper smelting site. There are several small, circular structures next to slag heaps, which may be the location of smelting furnaces. There are also more and larger enclosures, now unclear, that were probably workshops. Proper slag heaps and other concentrations of broken tapped slag were found throughout the site. We also found some small tuyere fragments and typical furnace slag.
