A mine filled with evil is one of the great traditional Dungeons. Also, evil from mines have so many themes. You've got Greed and it can be a Green Aesop too! See also King in the Mountain -- accidentally finding him before the country's hour of need can be dangerous. Can result in an Abandoned Mine. Examples of Dug Too Deep include:
