Epidote
Mount Jackson, Koolyanobbing, Yilgarn Shire, Western Australia, Australia
Located 67 kilometres north north-west of Koolyanobbing. The 617 metre hill was discovered by Augustus Gregory on 19 Aug 1846, during his first expedition from the Swan River colony. Prospectors James Speakman and William Hall discovered gold at Mt Jackson in Jan 1894.

Presently iron ore is being mined at the site by Cliff Resources, who is also mining at Koolyanobbing. Ore is trucked to here, then railed to Esperance. There are two pits with an expected mine life of ten years. They also mine iron ore at Windarling, a further 25 kilometres north of Mt Jackson.
