As I already told the person who disclosed this refill timer to me - 16 RL days is a bloody long time. Whoever "acquires" the deposit by digging it first after reset can then come back and dig it after refill, forever (assuming no other reset).
At least with bosses you have randomized timers, so they could reappear while you sleep. Also, it's easier to get into the loop with the shorter respawns, whereas losing track of a deposit could mean you never see it full again before a new reset.
