For making movies, yes.

I don't know about mining.

I believe it may have gold.

Maybe that 1849 stuff was all crap.

Actually it is where gold was first discovered and mined in California.

Cargo Muchacho-Tumco District
Imperial County, seven miles north of Ogilby

"Mining was done in this region as early as 1780-1781, when
placers in Jackson Gulch and oxidized ores in Madre Valley were
worked, This is believed to be the first gold mined in California,"
