CONCLUSION (1) The development and utilization of underground space is an inevitable trend in sustainable development strategies. Leveraging existing transportation systems, safe and efficient well construction can be achieved through mechanical rock-breaking and gravity-driven slag removal technology. This approach facilitates the creation of large-volume underground chambers, where a pilot shaft serves as a slag chute, enabling rapid excavation via large-scale mechanical or blasting methods. (2) The primary constraint on gravity-driven slag removal drilling technology for large-diameter wells is geological conditions. It is suitable for stable rock formations. For water-rich, fractured, or karstdeveloped strata, pre-grouting modification is required for sealing and reinforcement. In weak, unstable, or water-bearing formations, ground freezing provides temporary stabilization to meet drilling requirements. (3) The advancement of mechanical rock-breaking drilling technology and equipment for largediameter wells has accelerated underground mineral extraction and subsurface engineering in China. Gravity-driven slag removal offers significant energy-saving and cost advantages. Continued innovation in technology, processes, and equipment is essential to promote safer, greener, mechanized, and intelligent drilling systems, expanding their application in resource development and underground construction.
