Melda Ore Plant

Screenshot from inside the plant.

The Melda Ore Plant (メルダ鉱石プラント, Melda Ore Plant) is a location from Mega Man X: Command Mission. The Force Metal mined in Giga City is brought to the Metal Ore Plant for refining and to be converted for use in generators. The plant traverses the surface of the sea to collect the Force Metal form each of the plates. The temperature of the refinery itself is kept low to absorb the heat given off when Force Metal is refined. The Rebellion Army took over the plant and uses it to prepare a missile armed with a Supra-Force Metal warhead. Most of the entire area is made up of multiple small hallways that look practically identical and elevators that bring X closer to the Missile Silo that Epsilon planned on using to achieve his "ideal". After obtaining the "Melda Ore Key", X will be able to open a door that leads to the secret boss Duckbill Mole and Zero's "Absolute Zero" Hyper Mode.
