The proximity mine is a Covenant landmine. The grenade has a similar appearance to a Covenant Chershi-pattern antimatter charge.[1] After being set off, the mine fires a series of needler projectiles in all directions.[2]

During Operation: FIRESIDE, Taylor Miles and Kojo Agu threw one of these explosives at a group of Unggoy. The Unggoy, not realizing the device wasn't armed, panicked and fled into a corridor rigged with laser traps which sliced them to pieces.[1] They were also used by the Covenant during the Battle of Mombasa, and by Jul 'Mdama's Covenant during the Battle of Installation 03 and New Phoenix Incident.[2]
