question
if a claim is closed can you go and reopen it
im not a miner, as im Claustrophobic
just curious to how that works

Sometimes yes and sometimes no. Many areas are not open to claims any more thanks to the far left corner of the political spectrum. That site is a great research tool but is not 100% up to date. Once you find a location you are interested in, check with the local blm. It may be closed or already claimed.
