irlandesWhose ***** are them? They are mines
"Mines" is incorrect, and so is "them" in your question.

Whose ***** are these/those/they? (depending on context)
They are mine.

What sounds like "mines" may be heard as a contracted form of "mine is," and should be written with an apostrophe:

Where's your pen? Mine's
