Takes money to buy mines. Whether that was a good/bad investment isn’t the point.

Not much.

In the U.S. you can just file a claim. There are processing fees, etc., but those aren't that much.

Or you can buy one that someone else has claimed and not have to do all the paperwork.

Ten gold mining claims for sale, right here. All filed and proved up. US$12k each.

There are hundreds of others.

Perhaps things are different in South Africa, but I seriously doubt it.
