Mine passageway (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shaft

'mine passageway' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for shaft that I've seen before include "Handle - rod - passageway" , "Vertical passageway, into a mine say" , "Ray (of sunlight)" , "Ray; access hole to a mine" , "Spear handle; ray of sun" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune and the Newsday.
