Ore Processing is a room located in the Phazon Mines region of Metroid Prime. It is a large vertical room with four stories worth of height. The intended way of traversing this room involves having the Spider Ball and using the bomb slots in the room to move the pillar in the center of the room. The pillar has three movable sections which can be aligned such that Samus is able to use Spider to traverse to each of the floors. However, as described below, it is faster to climb this pillar in order to skip doing the puzzle, which is done in most major categories. The room also contains a Secret World.

Early Grapple Beam

The top of the room has a connection to Storage Depot B, which contains the Grapple Beam. It is possible to acquire Grapple Beam without Spider Ball or the Power Bombs. You normally need to do the Spider Track puzzle and blow up the rock with a Power Bomb to get Grapple Beam. With a dash, R-Jump or by walking on the ledge by the wall you can make it to the other side from the top of the room.

This video shows three different methods, from fastest to slowest.

From the bottom of the room:

Without Spider Ball

From the bottom, you can skip the entire Spider Track puzzle by jumping up the mechanism.

  • Start by jumping at the bottom ledge of the base.
  • Jump onto the pipe on the side that's facing closer to you.
  • Ghetto off of the pipe then jump to the next floor.
  • Get on top of the bomb slot, then jump forwards at the mechanism without holding L so you don't fall off.
  • Jump to the next level.
  • Line up with the line on the railing, then jump on top of it.
  • Line up with the hologram, then jump forwards twice while holding L. Release L on your second jump. Release forwards just when you touch the top so you don't fall off.
