IMO, the real question is how to preserve it in deep time. Where is accessible enough but also protected? The best place would probably be a location that is heavily contaminated by toxic or nuclear waste. Those will likely remain time capsules in the near term, but remain as focal points in deep time. Find a spot that is likely to survive continental drift, the next super continent, and countless ice ages. I dare you. Do it! Make the ultimate geo cache.
How about the bottom of Mariana tench? The intense pressure will make sure some Mr Rando can’t just pop in one day and smack it with a hammer. If you keep this relic in the remains of the exploded reactor in Chernobyl, some nut job can just run in, cause some damage and run away. Sure, they will pay with their life, but that won’t fix the hammer marks on the cube.
Chemical dangers are another option, but those kinds of places aren’t stable for a million years. Some volcanoes spew sulfur dioxide, which would be a good repellant, but those vents open and close in unexpected ways.
Dang didn't think of a nuclear site. Was thinking more along the lines of a protected area. The only problem with toxic environment would be protecting the material itself in a budget friendly way
You are too smart to survive. You are the weakest link.
