    easily accessible raw material will all have been used up

    doesn’t that just mean that these end up in landfills, i.e. close to the surface?

      In landfill, but not as raw material. If you didn’t already know how to make bronze, for example, you’d have a hell of a time making new bronze based on old contaminated remnants.
