Try using a live CD\DVD first to see if you can see the Fedora partition.

Then, install Ubuntu side-by-side with Fedora. The Fedora should show up in the filesystem. If not then mount the Fedora partition.

I did enter in with linux mint but it does not show any option for mount, all it says is LVM is not yet supported.

You need to install the LVM package in Linux Mint.
