Just a thought, I thought I should share with you guys;
Could we add a locust type animal that will eat metal/stone walls?
Maybe make an event to cause a "Rockroach" to come and eat holes through your stone walls, or even burrow inside your cave and cause cave-ins.
Same with a metal variation, a "Slugroach" or something.

Maybe it will leave stones/metal slugs in its wake, so it's not a total disaster.

will be very punishing for players since both metal and stone are not infinite.

termites that will "eat" and damage (not insta destroy) wooden stuff is valid and fun

It would indeed be very punishing if it destroyed stone.

Metal on the other hand is infinite. You just need to grow lots of extra crops, sell them, then use the money to buy metal.

I definitely like your termites idea. ;D
