A Bi-Pb-Ag-Cu-Mo-Zn-Hg mine located near the bottom of Mariposa Canyon, southern Toquima Range, 8 km E of Round Mountain, Nye Co., Nevada.
A very complete bibliography for benjaminite exists in the Mineralogical Record reference (see below).
Included in Mariposa nos. 1-8 located by Robert Warren in 1980.

| β Aikinite Formula: PbCuBiS3 References: |
| β Anglesite Formula: PbSO4 References: |
| β Benjaminite (TL) Formula: Ag3Bi7S12 Type Locality: Description: The mineral was first studied by Shannon (1924), who concluded on the basis of chemical data only that it was a new species and proposed the name benjaminite. Nuffield (1953) re-examined the type specimen and determined that Shannonβs βbenjaminiteβ was actually aikinite. Nuffield, however, noted a minute amount of another phase in the type specimen that deviated from Shannonβs description and analytical data. He described it as a new species retaining Shannonβs name for the mineral. Owing to erroneous data, benjaminite was briefly discredited (1973-1974). The type specimen from TL1 and specimens from two Canadian localities were investigated by Nuffield (1975) and Harris & Chen (1975), and data derived from all three localities were used in a joint proposal to IMA CNMMN for the revalidation of the species. |
