'''Phazon Mines''' | The '''Phazon Mines''' are a [[Space Pirate]] mining facility built 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]] and [[Magmoor Caverns]]. | ||
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}} must also deal with [[Mega Turret|automated defenses]] and volatile [[Tallon Metroid]]s being used in Space Pirate experiments. | |||
