Excellent idea! The largest abandoned mines I'm aware of are salt mines, which… hang on.

Yea, that's one of the problems. We're literally digging up salt AND the mountains are being eroded to add more salt. The Earth is getting anti-terraformed and we're speeding it up. (Although obviously the fossil fuel situation is a much closer and worse problem)
