In Part I, Chapter I, the disappearance of the American prospectors foreshadows the ever present danger in the silver mine. The mine promises great wealth, but it is also a source of trouble for its owners. The mine represents great wealth, and as a result, it triggers an inhuman amount of greed and possessiveness that drives people mad.
