I've seen people shoot gold into the walls of a mine to make it look like there's something left in there. Only those new to the industry would fall for it.
There are absolutely ways to find out the likelihood of how much is left. They're either patsies or idiots who didn't listen to their geologists.
Somehow I don't think Errol Musk knew that much about the geology. Allegedly he bought the shares on a whim without first visiting the mine, which was in a different country.
