Gel Refinery Site

The Gel Refinery Site is an open room in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption located in Bryyo Fire, on Bryyo.
==Description==
On Samus's first visit, she must ignite the Fuel Gel on a platform to raise it and make her way to the Main Lift. On subsequent visits, she is able to collapse a pillar to create a shortcut and obtain a Missile Expansion, and follow a Morph Ball tunnel with hazards such as ice blockages created by Rundas, fire blasts and ignitable platforms that send Samus upward with force.
Other features in the room are the Reptillicus that can be battled there, the river of Fuel Gel in the middle, the processing chamber distributing Fuel Gel into the piping, and the stone carved Fuel Gel pumps. As these pumps were made by the Galactic Federation, it is a strong indication that they respect the ruins of the Bryyonians' society.

==Development notes ==
The room's internal name is 07_bryyo_pipepuzzle, referencing the network of Morph Ball tunnels that must be navigated in order to reach the Refinery Access and the upper level of the Imperial Hall. The keyword bryyo indicates the planet Bryyo, and the prefix 07 indicates that this is the seventh of 14 main rooms throughout the planet.
==Trivia==
*The Orange Door in this room is blocked by destructible ice. If Samus uses Sequence Breaking to enter this room from the opposite site of the Orange Door while the ice is still covering it, the ice will shatter once the door opens.
