In ''[[Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]'', the '''Phazon Mines''' is a [[Space Pirate]] mining facility to harvest [[Phazon]] and use it for warfare. The mines are only accessible through the crashed Space Pirate [[Frigate Orpheon|frigate]] in the [[Tallon Overworld]]. In the first several rooms, Phazon covers the rooms' floors. Genetically altered space pirates work there, including pirates that are only vulnerable to one of Samus's beams, and the [[Elite Pirate]]s, which are twice the size of Samus. In her first visit, she aquires the [[Power Bomb|Power Bombs]] and regains her [[Grapple Beam]]. Her next visit, after obtaining the [[X-Ray Visor]] and the [[Plasma Beam]], consists of her going through dangerous [[Metroid (species)|Metroid]] Quarantines, leading up to the [[Omega Pirate]] which grants Samus the [[Phazon Suit]].

The Mines are the base of operations for several of the Space Pirates' research projects, including [[Project Helix]], which is the infusion of Phazon into Space Pirates. This fusion creates a breed of Space Pirate known as the [[Elite Pirate]]s. There are a total of seven Elite Pirates located throughout the Mines, while only 3 are actually fought. The Pirates have induced several successful mutations with powerful results, including the [[Phazon Elite]] and the [[Omega Pirate]]. This facility is also the Space Pirate headquarters on [[Tallon IV]].
Other Space Pirate types encountered here include the [[Power Trooper]], [[Wave Trooper]], [[Ice Trooper]], and the [[Plasma Trooper]], all created by reverse-engineering [[Chozo]] [[Beam]] weaponry and susceptible to only one type of beam. While Space Pirates densely populate the area and are the most often encountered enemy, [[Samus Aran|Samus]] must also deal with [[Mega Turret|automated defenses]] and volatile [[Tallon Metroid]]s being used in Space Pirate experiments.
