Want to go deep underground to hunt for mysteries in GTA V’s mineshaft? In this post, we’ll show you where is the mineshaft in GTA 5 and what’s inside it.

Where Is The Mineshaft In GTA 5?

In GTA 5, there’s only 1 mineshaft, and it’s located in the Great Chaparral, Los Santos County.

Great Chaparral is a grassy, hilly area between the city and a desert. The abandoned mine is located on the road of Great Chaparral, as you can see in the image below:

You can use any protagonist to enter the mine. However, considering the closest distance, Franklin is ideal for this exploration.

Exploring The Abandoned Mine

It’s easy to spot the mineshaft on the way as there are many barriers, rubber wheels, and scattered cables messing around it.

The entrance is initially blocked, but you can use any type of bomb, minigun, or launcher to destroy it. Keep in mind that you should stay far away before shooting, or you’ll waste yourself.

While exploring the mine, you can see several railroad tracks, dead ends, and mining tools. The light inside the mine is limited, so you should equip a flashlight or use guns with thermal scopes to ensure visibility.

There aren’t too many items to loot or enemies in this mineshaft. However, you will come across a corpse of Isaac and may find a film canister nearby, which is required to complete the side mission “Murder Mystery”.

You can keep exploring the mine following the pathways, but most of them are blocked and inaccessible. To exit the mineshaft, go back to the entrance.

In addition to completing side missions, this abandoned mine is also a place of mysterious happenings and scary myths that make debate among players. Although most of them are yet to be confirmed, this is a worthy place to visit and have unique experiences.
