Hello all, I am a new player and just got a Special Gold Mine set up. I was wondering when it runs out of ore and I need to tear it down do I get the mine back or is it gone forever?

Once exhausted, gone forever, and if you tear it down yourself it is equally gone forever.

The best thing to do is stop it before it runs out then refill it from the refills you get from adventures, this will save you the cost of buying another. Learning how to run a high level gold mine so it don't run out is one of the dark arts of the game.

best thing you do with it, wait until you get "Quality Gold Mineshafts" for your geo, search until you get gold deposit with this skill, and put your special gold mine on it, and stop it if its close to end, and refill it, you get tons of refills from adventures, and anyway special gold mine not so much expensive in trade office.

I have one like that, it seems from an old special event.

really? can someone officially confirm that it's not a bug, please? and if so, how do we recognize that kind of mine (because I also have an old event mine, but I'm afraid to let it run out)?

There is 2 types, most of the types will just die, the returnable one is rare, not worth anyway, but still, exist, also, I'm not sure if it ran out it will be destroyed or just return, I think it will be gone.

If I recall correctly the ones which return to star where from the last Xmas event, These ones are bugged as they are not supposed to return to star, I was under the impression BB had fixed them so that they did not return to star.

I think you might be getting confused with the Arctic Iron Mine from the Xmas 2016 Calendar, which had a similar bug.
It was fixed in the 24.01.2017 update (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/34294-Change-Log-24.01.2017).

It was Arctic iron mine, we got a lot of fun for this in a forum, but this special gold mine could be from another older event, back to 2015 maybe.
