'''Magmoor Caverns''' is a large volcanic region of [[Tallon IV]], and the third area visited by [[Samus Aran|Samus]] ''[[Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]''. The Caverns consist of large caves with [[Stalactite|stalactites]], mostly with lava flooding the ground, and floating platforms that descend over time. While most of the area is natural, a portion of the Caverns is run by [[Space Pirate]] operations. Magmoor Caverns is widely considered a crossway in ''Metroid Prime'', supported by the fact that all areas of the game except for the [[Impact Crater]] connect to it. Magmoor Caverns' name originates from the common lava-based creature that inhabits the area, the [[Magmoor]]. Samus can access the Caverns earlier in her visit, but cannot venture far without the acquisition of the [[Varia Suit]]. While the whole area is below every other area in the game, there are three rooms that are located above the surface, those being the [[Triclops Pit]], [[Monitor Station]], and [[Magmoor Workstation]]. The most common enemies of Magmoor Caverns are Magmoors, [[Puffer|Puffers]], [[Triclops]], [[Auto Defense Turret|Auto Defense Turrets]], and [[Flying Pirate|Flying Pirates]]. The area is the only one in ''Metroid Prime'' that does not contain a [[:Category:Bosses|boss]]. It also has the least amount of upgrades, besides the Impact Crater, the only ones being the [[Ice Spreader]] and the [[Plasma Beam]]. There are two [[Missile Expansion|Missile Expansions]], two [[Energy Tank|Energy Tanks]], and one [[Power Bomb|Power Bomb Expansion]].
