Eduard Mine is a former silver and uranium mine, located in the valley of the Eliášský brook near Jáchymov, on the road between the town and Boží Dar.

After the Second World War, at the time of massive uranium mining in the Jáchymov region, one of the concentration camps stood here. After mining, a biathlon centre was built here. Massive mining is reminded by a massive dump over the Horkým rybníkem ("Hot Pond") and the remains of TNP buildings (Tábory nucené práce, "forced labour camps"). Today, sports activities take place here and there is a stop at the "NS Jáchymovské peklo" hiking trail, dedicated to the ecology of the area.
