Phazon (Orange)

From Wikitroid, the Metroid wiki

Orange Phazon is a more dangerous kind of Phazon than the Blue Phazon that appears on planet Tallon IV.

[edit] Description

This Phazon was found by Samus Aran deep in Tallon IV's Impact Crater. Although Samus has the Phazon Suit, it still damages Samus on contact despite the fact that the Phazon Suit protects her from radiation of Phazon. It's 82% more mutagenic than standard Phazon according to the Scan Visor.

Its origins and relation to the Blue Phazon are unknown, but it is possibly just high concentrations of Phazon trapped in the Crater. It is interesting that Orange Phazon doesn't show up on Phaaze, suggesting that it is a new kind of Phazon. Another variation of Phazon appears in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption called Red Phazite. This substance may or may not be linked to Orange Phazon.
