Yes, in one sense. In the old days gold was mined by sight. Today through advanced washing technologies, micro gold, or fine gold can be recovered and washed out of the dirt. In this sense, old mines are the best bet possible for future micro mining projects, and are therefore somewhat of a renewable resource.

What does renewable sources MEAN?
A renewable resource is one which does not get used up. Sunlight is a very important resource upon which we depend for many things, but no matter what uses we may make of sunlight, we do not use it up; the sun shines just as brightly. Similarly, we can use rain in whatever way we like, and there will always be more rain. In comparison, something such as a gold mine is not renewable. Once you dig out all the gold, it is gone, there is no more in that particular mine, and there are only a limited number of mines available. It is possible to mine all the gold in the world, and have nothing more to mine.
