One important radiation source are muon-induced neutrons. Their production processes are up to now not fully understood. New measurements with MINIDEX (Muon-Induced Neutron Indirect Detection EXperiment) of the production of neutrons by cosmogenic muons in high-Z materials are reported. The setup is located at the T{\\\"u}bingen Shallow Underground Laboratory, which provides a vertical shielding depth of (13.2\\,$\\pm$\\,0.8) meter water equivalent at the setup location.
