Kanayamahime no Mikoto is a kami of mining and metals in Shinto tradition, venerated alongside Kanayamahiko no Mikoto as a deity associated with ore, smelting, and the crafting of metal goods. As a figure connected to metalwork, she is often linked in popular devotion to prosperity and fortune, though such associations reflect folk belief rather than fixed doctrine. She is honored at various shrines across Japan, particularly those historically tied to mining communities and metalworking trades.
