Macroevaporation

You want Ytterbium? I'll give you Ytterbium. Plenty of Ytterbium.
But first let's suppress this thick layer of gaseous oxygen. Cassandra Eliak-S'ohr, Macrominer - orbital mission around GC.815.-236.-89g mining planet

Macroevaporation is an efficient technique for large-scale environmental transformation. The process is rooted in the controlled breakdown of planetary surface materials, where unwanted or hazardous terrain - ranging from toxic atmospheres to frozen surfaces - is rapidly disassembled at molecular level. This is most commonly achieved by using high-frequency energy fields able to resonate with the atomic structure of the target materials, destabilising them and facilitating their transition from solid or liquid states directly into gas.

The approach offers a far more dynamic alternative to traditional mining, excavation, or atmospheric modification techniques, which often involve slow and resource-intensive processes. By employing quantum resonance vaporisation, macroevaporation allows the mass removal of geological features such as mountains or ice caps, directly converting them into an aerosol state. The key advantage lies in the selective application of field harmonics, which target specific molecular bonds, ensuring that only designated materials are evaporated, while surrounding areas remain untouched.
