Maybe GM's mistake you for a botter,
It's crowed up there with botters.
I heard story's of legitimate people getting banned up there, not sure if it's true tho.
You shouldn't be permabanned for mining as long as you do not directly benefit from botted activities on that map (eg. looting an elite boss they spawned, or farming mesos dropped from slain monsters).
That being said, if you are still uncomfortable; the safest solution would be to avoid the map altogether. If you are looking for mining veins, a few other areas you might want to explore are Tyraneum's Labyrinth, Leafre, or Kritias.

What's going on, exactly, there?
