    From my understanding, gold mines (doesn’t even have to be a mine, just a gold claim of any type) have certain legal exemptions for trespassing from the olden days. At least in most areas that I’m aware of. It’s basically the Castle Doctrine but can be applied if it seems like another person is even attempting to visit your claim. Not much room for concerns of “what happened?” when the only question that needs answered is “were they there?”
