I feel you but nothing actually forces you to dig giant holes.
- there are plenty of copper deposits around you can just dig near the surface, although it takes many to collect the same amount of ore;
- you can grow grass and plant trees in those holes;
- if you get in full mining mode, it's normal to be left with an excavated landscape. Just assume your lust for technology!
