As I stated above, you likely wouldn't make it through the 2nd part of the Henne Mines at that level. The foes there will likely have OHKO potential at that level.

To be able to get through there, you should be at level 60 minimum. Levels 70 or higher are recommended.
Yes, you should be a little higher, but you can enter site 11 at the late 30s and early 40s and survive there. Henne is a little tougher, but not insanely tougher... just more packs of enemies in larger numbers. It's not easy by a long shot.
I would wager you could do the same in Henne Mines with great care and strategy. I believe I was in the upper 40s or early 50s there when I went there. The only real stopping factor is having the 10 "beings under your control"

To get through it at all, I would recommend high 40s, low 50s... to get through it easily, without constant reviving, and a good possibility of game over, i'd recommend high 50s/low 60s
With the "at least" 40 recommendation I was merely saying that for the low level people who'd probably come on here and say you can get zodiark at level 25

Not trying to be annoying, but it is possible at lower levels, it just has greater risk. The biggest risk is "leech" imo.

I had a terribly hard time deeper in the mines closer to the "being" when there were no bats, and the ghost type enemies came out. I eventually went out and leveled a bit, but I'd wager it is possible to survive in there, as I did somewhat highly inefficiently at that level unless my memory is bad.
