An idea worth pursuing I guess. My first question: in case this gets forgotten about in the distant future, how could it be marked so there’s a good chance of being found?

Definitely underground. The temperature swings would be wild otherwise.
Also the full force solar radiation. That’s probably not good for DNA samples either.
