The Eureka No. 4 Mine was a coal mine operated by the Eureka Coal Company in Helena. The mine was opened in 1917 and sealed up decades later.

In 2012 the site was leveled to accommodate a new building for Helena High School. The inscribed concrete head slab from the former mine portal was removed and donated to the Helena History Museum.
