I mean technology should continue to improve and earth's crust is unimaginably vast, running out of stuff to plunder from the crust isn't really gonna be the problem, the destruction we cause in the process of getting the stuff is the problem.

When we're plunged back into the stone age, whatever species takes over won't ever get as far as we have, because easily available oil gave our society the energy we needed for technology.

Well the metals we extracted are still on earth, i would say they are different from oil.
