Bomb Block

Bomb Blocks are a type of barrier found in Metroid: Zero Mission and Metroid Fusion. They can be cleared with a Bomb or a Power Bomb. A shot from the Paralyzer is also capable of destroying Bomb Blocks.

A large amount of Bomb Blocks in Metroid: Zero Mission

When in large amounts, if one block is destroyed, all blocks nearby will be destroyed as well. In Metroid Zero Mission, Samus can fire a Beam weapon to make them visible, this also occurs when Bomb Blocks are hit with a Zebesian's weapon's fire.

While not in the Metroid Prime series, blocks made from Sandstone or Talloric Alloy serve a similar purpose.
