A former Cu-U occurrence/mine located in the NEΒΌ sec. 5, T30N, R4E, G&SRM, 0.8 km (0.5 miles) SSE of Horseshoe Mesa (coordinates of record) (Vishnu Temple 15 minute topo map), N of Grandview Point, South rim, Grand Canyon, on National Park Service land (Grand Canyon National Park). The Grand View Mine and (this) Last Chance Mine are the same (Mineralogy of Arizona, 3rd. ed.). Discovered 1890. The first production was in 1893 and the last was in 1916. Operated by the Canyon Copper Company from 1901 to 1908. William Randolph Hearst purchased the below-rim property in 1913. The ore was hauled by mules to the top of the canyon. The USGS MRDS database stated accuracy for this locality is 100 meters.

The Grandview Mine officially closed in 1907, but went through a series of owners until William Randolph Hearst acquired it. Hearst sold the property to the United States National Park Service in 1940, and it is now part of the Grand Canyon National Park. The Grandview Mine is now a roost for protected bat species, including Townsend’s Big-eared Bat (Corynorthinus townsendii).

Mineralization is a Cu-U deposit of secondary Cu minerals with gangue species in a breccia zone along a monocline flexure in Shea basalt hosted in the Navajo sandstone. Controls for ore emplacement included a breccia zone along a monocline flexure. Local alteration involves the Redwall limestone which is bleached, brecciated and marbleized. The Grandview monocline lies along the WNW-trending Cremation fault. The presence of kaolinite and fully hydrated zeunerite suggest formation temperature under 70Β Β°C. Local rocks include Mississippian, Devonian, and Cambrian sedimentary rocks.

The orebody is a pipe-like body hosted in the upper Redwall Limestone and the basal Supai Formation. U minerals are associated with limonite, copper carbonates, silicates and sulfate minerals, also minor pyrite and other sulfides along brecciated, bleached and marbleized Redwall Limestone. Metazeunerite/zeunerite are found in limonitic, gossan-type ore. Radiation is 20,000 counts per second.

Local geologic structures include the Grandview Monocline that lies along the WNW-trending Cremation Fault.

Analysis test results: 2.764% e U3O8; 1.892% U3O8.

Production statistics for the period 1893 to 1900 are unknown. Production during the period 1901 to 1908 was 907,402 pounds (411.59 t) of Cu, 14,103 (14,110 ??) pounds of Ag, and 1,628 tons of ___??.
