MAX Power Mining (CSE: MAXX) (OTC: MAXXF) (FRANKFURT: 89N) has identified a robust near-term drilling target for a second Natural Hydrogen play concept in Saskatchewan, advancing toward licensing to commence the Bracken well along the Saskatchewan-Montana border in February. This development builds on the company’s confirmed Natural Hydrogen discovery at Lawson within the 475-km Genesis Trend, and represents a strategic expansion of its exploration efforts to demonstrate basin-scale continuity and scalability.
The Bracken target was generated through an integrated geophysical and geological workflow using newly acquired proprietary 2D seismic and legacy data. It will test a stratigraphic play concept distinct from the structural model at Lawson, with potential associated helium. The target is supported by the company’s AI-assisted MAXX LEMI platform, which enhances the identification of high-potential drilling locations.
MAX Power is a first mover in the rapidly growing Natural Hydrogen sector, holding 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. The company is progressing analytical testing, resource modeling, and estimation at the Lawson discovery while simultaneously expanding exploration to other high-priority targets.
The identification of the Bracken well target underscores the potential for multiple hydrogen plays within the Genesis Trend, highlighting the scalability of natural hydrogen resources in the region. According to the company, the Bracken well will test a different geological concept, which could open new avenues for hydrogen exploration and production. The associated helium potential adds further economic value to the project.
MAX Power remains focused on North America’s shift to decarbonization, with its Natural Hydrogen portfolio representing a key component of its strategy. The company also holds a portfolio of properties in the United States and Canada focused on critical minerals, including a 2024 diamond drilling discovery at the Willcox Playa Lithium Project in southeast Arizona.
