It depends on the finish of the fireplace, if it is painted use caution so as not to damage the finish. Check anything you would use to clean it on an inconspicuous place first to check for finish damage.
If it is simply adhesive residue, apply some mineral oil (baby oil is a good source) or mineral spirits (paint thinner) or a light lubricating oil like WD-40. Allow to sit for a few minutes, the adhesive will soften and can be removed by rubbing with a rag. It may take several applications depending on the amount of residue and how long it has been on there. Wash the oils off with plain soap and water once the adhesive has been removed. Patients pays off in this case, scrubbing or abrasives will probably change the finish around where the tape was left.
