Can someone clarify the geochemistry for me? What happens to the rock vapor? Does it resolidify along the existing wall, or does it recondense into fine particulates, and are those particulates easier to remove than pieces of the solid rock itself? Then, can somebody clarify the physics for me- how far away can the target be from the energy source of the gyro-tron?

It's discussed a little bit in this video (starting at 8:37). It sounds like it creates a glassy coating on the drill hole wall https://youtu.be/g8sjdOjNxIE?t=519 https://youtu.be/g8sjdOjNxIE?t=519
