Metroid Quarantine B is a room in the Phazon Mines. It appears in Metroid Prime.
Description
There is Phazon in the middle of the room, so Samus must use the Spider Ball to reach an upper platform so that she may use a Grapple Point to grapple across to what appears to be a lab. This room connects to a Save Station. Metroids will appear here after the death of the Omega Pirate or Samus restarts the game from the Save Station.
In the back half of the room are several computer screens, one of which contains Pirate Data.
A Secret World can be found in this room:[1]

As we continue to observe the development of Project Helix's Elite Pirates, it becomes increasingly obvious that these warriors will usher in a new era of Space Pirate dominance. They are incredibly resistant to damage, and their ability to transport and wield so many weapons at once makes them the ideal mainstays of our ground forces. Though they are not as quick as typical Pirates, it makes little difference. With a platoon of Elite Pirates in the vanguard of an army of normal and Flying Pirates, we will have a near-indestructible backbone that should turn the tide in any engagement."
- Computer screen
- "Data suggests that Omega Pirate life spans are critically low.
High levels of Phazon exposure are causing rapid cell degeneration in all test subjects. No subject lived longer than 2 deca-cycles in our simulations. Their life spans must be increased to be cost-effective."
- Computer screen
- "Omega Pirate Absorption System test results are in.
Field tests indicate that the system is very effective against Beam weaponry. We are alarmed at the field's inability to handle Missile attacks, however. Science Team is working around the clock to correct this critical design flaw. The Omega Pirate cannot afford such a weakness in battle."
- Computer screen
- "Health Alert: Phazon radiation warning is still in effect.
Do not enter a Phazon processing area without Level 8 radiation gear. Prolonged exposure is 100% fatal."
- Computer screen
- "Phazon processing efficiency at maximum. Production at 187% and rising."
