MAX Power Mining (CSE: MAXX; OTC: MAXXF; FRANKFURT: 89N) is advancing its collaboration with the Petroleum Technology Research Center (PTRC) and the University of Regina through a technical working session and field visit aimed at deepening the understanding of naturally occurring hydrogen systems in Saskatchewan. The session, held at the U of R Innovation Center and followed by a visit to the Lawson drill site near Central Butte, Saskatchewan, brings together leading researchers to identify new research and commercialization opportunities.
The Lawson drill site is home to Canada’s first Natural Hydrogen drill program, situated along the 475-kilometer Genesis Trend. The collaboration is led by Chief Geoscientist Steve Halabura and includes researchers from PTRC, the University of Regina, the Saskatchewan Geological Survey, and the Colorado School of Mines, including Dr. Yaoguo Li. This initiative underscores the growing interest in natural hydrogen as a potential clean energy source and positions Saskatchewan as a key region for exploration.
MAX Power is a first mover in the rapidly growing Natural Hydrogen sector, having built a dominant district-scale land position with approximately 1.3 million acres (521,000 hectares) of permits covering prime exploration ground prospective for large volume accumulations of natural hydrogen. High-priority initial drill target areas have been identified for commencement of drilling in Q4 2025. The company also holds a portfolio of properties in the United States and Canada focused on critical minerals, highlighted by a 2024 diamond drilling discovery at the Willcox Playa Lithium Project in southeast Arizona.
This advancement is significant as it brings together academic and industry expertise to accelerate the understanding and development of natural hydrogen resources. The technical working session and field visit are expected to yield insights that could lead to new exploration techniques and commercialization pathways.
