Afloraltite

From Wikitroid, the Metroid wiki

Afloraltite is a crystal that was mined on the Earth colony K-2L. Afloraltite was used to fuel the ignition module of a space ship. On K-2L, the Choujinzoku, or translated Chozo, come asking to borrow Afloraltite in a hurry. Afloraltite has flammable properties, as it is used in the ignition sequence for a ship; it has been suggested that it could also be used as an explosive weapon, as if a beam were to come in contact with it, it would cause a great explosion. As it is never mentioned in the games it is possible that, for fuel purposes, it was replaced by Fuel Gel. The containers that store Afloraltite bare a strong resemblance to the Energy Cells of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, so it is possible that the Energy Cells' power comes from Afloraltite within.

[edit] The e-manga

In the Metroid (manga), Ridley and the Zebesian Space Pirates attack K-2L, the Earth Colony that Samus Aran lives in, slaughtering nearly every living thing on the colony. Rodney Aran, Samus's father, shoots the Afloraltite with an automatic weapon, igniting it and causing a massive explosion, destroying Ridley's ship and many of his troops. Somehow Samus survives, and Ridley manages to escape.
