MAX Power to Launch Exploration Program at Rider Natural Hydrogen Project in Saskatchewan

MAX Power Mining Corp. (CSE: MAXX; OTC: MAXXFFRANKFURT: 89N) (“MAX Power” or the “Company”) is entering the exploration phase at Canada’s largest Natural Hydrogen land package in Saskatchewan with the engagement of Petro-Find Geochem Ltd. (“Petro-Find”) to carry out an extensive soil gas sampling program across key initial targets at the Rider Project featuring dozens of historical hydrogen showings from old wells.

Highlights:

  • Saskatoon-based Petro-Find is a soil gas sampling leader in Western Canada and has developed a proprietary system that captures highly accurate readings for hydrogen from specialized gas probes driven into soils;
  • The proprietary sampling methods will give crews on the ground real time data and maximum flexibility to cover large areas with increased density of sampling where warranted;
  • Samples will be processed at Petro-Find’s lab in Saskatoon for rapid analysis. The program is expected to commence upon harvesting of crops in southeast Saskatchewan.

Mr. Denis Brière, MAX Power Special Advisor who has written the world’s only NI-51-101 report for a naturally occurring accumulation of hydrogen gas (original discovery in Mali), commented:

“The Rider Project is in the top category of Natural Hydrogen projects in the world in my view.

With a policy framework in place for Natural Hydrogen exploration and development at Rider, MAX Power has a unique opportunity to make Western Canada the launch pad for an important new low-cost, low-emissions energy source in North America.”

Mr. Neil McMillan, Senior Strategic Advisor to MAX Power and former Chairman of Cameco, added:

“Saskatchewan is famous for its rich resources including oil and gas, uranium and potash – we even have one of Canada’s premier gold mines.

We are in an enviable position with first mover MAX Power to do something very big with respect to Natural Hydrogen that could resonate around the world.”

Sampling Method and Parameters

Petro-Find will take soil samples spaced approximately 400 metres apart during this first phase exploration program. When the sample results are received, they will be contoured to map out initial anomalies. Areas of most interest can be followed up with future infill sampling programs to further refine Natural Hydrogen targets in soils.

Engagement of Enki GeoSolutions

MAX Power is pleased to report that it has directly engaged Enki GeoSolutions of Montreal for Natural Hydrogen consulting services. Mr. Stephan Séjourné is the CEO of Enki GeoSolutions and in conjunction with the consulting engagement will relinquish the title/role of “Scientific Advisor” to MAX Power (refer to June 28, 2024 news release).
