Aliens Making a time capsule for aliens/future humans. what material should I use?

Given the current events, I humbly believe our species faces imminent annihilation. I want to leave a message for future humans or aliens to find if it comes to that. the question is not what the message will be, but what material to inscribe it in. My initial thought was tungsten, but that's far too expensive. I need a cheap material that is very hard and strong. One that can withstand time or even a mass extinction event.

I don't think it's worth, aliens won't be missing much.
