An adit. In North America, the horizontal or sloped entrance to a mine is called a "Portal". Portal more specifically refers to the portion of the shaft visible from the outside of the mine. In some areas, the Portal portion of a horizontal shaft is called the "Drift Mouth" or "Drift Portal" as this shaft leads into a "Drift Mine". With a vertical shaft, that portion would be called a "Collar".
The horizontal entrance is called a portal. If there are two portals, then you call the excavation a tunnel. If there is only one, it is call a drift or adit.
