Sure, if your contention is that they only 'just' discovered the richest mine of all at the very end of their efforts and decided to pack up and leave rather than mine it. Sure.
Very good CN !
And it's pretty close to what was said to have happened.
Except that it was the deteriorating situation with the natives which left them no other choice but to pack up and get out.
I've also expressed my contention that the LDM saga actually references two mines...the first being the one which Waltz/Weiser and Peralta initially worked, and where Weiser was later attacked and wounded while Waltz was absent...and the second being the "richest" deposit/mine where he had found the three "indians"---OOPS---Mexicans mining. But I won't get any further into that within this thread, unless something in the show provides additional evidence IMO.
