The landfills...

...will make some interesting deposits in the sedimentry record.

In deep mines, they fill the stopes (mined areas) with a mixture of backfill, concrete, and whatever else needs throwing away in the mine. These should make for some pretty interesting deposits in the future. Some of these are thousands of feet deep (the deepest gold mine is more than 4000 meters) so they will last quite a long time.
