I will be mounting a mirror in a powder room with a mosaic glass tiled wall behind the sink. Any tips on best way to secure a mirror on such a surface?

same way you would hang it on a regular wall. drill your holes through the tile with a drill bit meant for glass. put tape over the tile before you drill.

I don't know how heave the mirror is, but if you can drill into a stud, that be perfect. If not, use the molly screws. Fixed mounting (rather that a wire strung across the back of the mirror) would be best.
