Majuba Hill Mine

Antelope Mining District, Pershing County, Nevada, USA

A former mixed metals (primarily Cu-Sn-As) mine worked as early as 1914.

The mine is the type locality for two minerals, goudeyite and parnauite, as well as around 100 other minerals.

The site is probably best known for arthurite, clinoclase, and strashimirite, as well as various uncommon minerals, including some rare earths and radioactive minerals.

Recently, Giant Mining Corp has discovered signs of a large deposit of copper and silver at the site.
