It was Al Capone lol.

And if this was that mine, wouldn't he go there first and get the gold?

The area in question is part of the Superstition Wilderness Area and as such, is tightly regulated.

One cannot just show up and start hauling out gold. There are strict procedures that must be followed before any prospecting, treasure-troving, or mining can occur.
