Pulsar Helium Inc. (AIM: PLSR, TSXV: PLSR, OTCQB: PSRHF)
("
Pulsar" or the "
Company"), a
leading helium project development company, is pleased to announce
that it has received the interpretation of a passive seismic survey
conducted at the Kap Tobin prospect within the Tunu Project,
Greenland. The data was collected in the summer of 2024 and
interpretation received this month, showing two main low velocity
anomaly zones that fit surface observations of a hydrothermal zone
and fault that is associated with gas emissions containing up to
0.8% helium between 50-200 metres vertical depth.
Key achievements:
-
Successful Survey: 150 passive seismic sensors
deployed at an average interstation distance of 100 metres.
-
Promising Results: High quality data received,
reliable between 50-200 metres vertical depth.
- Velocity
Anomalies: Study reveals two low-velocity anomaly zones
aligning with surface observations of a hydrothermal zone and a
fault linked to gas emissions with up to 0.8% helium.
-
Fractured Reservoir: Unexpectedly low velocities
suggest the rock is more fractured than anticipated. This could aid
helium exploration, as fractures provide spaces for the gas to
accumulate and become trapped underground.
-
Exploration Targets: Identified low-velocity zones
offer clear targets for drilling exploratory wells for helium and
potential associated geothermal energy production.
Thomas Abraham-James, President &
CEO of Pulsar Helium, commented on the study:
“The
completion of this passive seismic survey at the Kap Tobin prospect
in Greenland marks a significant milestone in our exploration
efforts at the Tunu Project. The identified low velocity anomalies,
coupled with our previous helium shows in the area, reinforce our
confidence in the project’s potential not only for helium, but also
geothermal energy. These results provide valuable insights into the
subsurface structure and will guide our future exploration and
development strategies.”
Strategic Significance
Helium is on the European Union (EU) list of
critical raw materials and while not an EU member, Greenland is a
strategic partner to the critical raw materials initiative.
Potential for a combined helium and geothermal energy operation has
been identified and is being assessed for commercial production.
Geothermal energy could be utilised for the helium production
facility and as an alternative power source for the nearby
settlement of Ittoqqortoormiit (located 7.5km to the north of Kap
Tobin) which currently relies on diesel generators. Meanwhile
produced helium could be exported to the EU.
Reservoir Potential
The survey has revealed promising indications of
potential helium-bearing reservoirs. The two identified main
NNE-SSW low velocity anomaly zones correlate with surface
observations of hydrothermal activity and faulting. These features
could potentially indicate pathways for helium migration and
accumulation.
Kap Tobin Summary
The Kap Tobin prospect located within the
Company’s Tunu Project in Liverpool Land, East Greenland, and is
7.5km south of the settlement of Ittoqqortoormiit. Previous
sampling of hot springs at Kap Tobin in 2022 revealed helium
concentrations between 0.36-0.82%, determined using different
methods in three independent laboratories. The remainder of the gas
is mostly nitrogen, which is an inert gas that makes up the
majority of Earth’s atmosphere. Additional geothermal studies by
academic institutions suggest a reservoir temperature of at least
80°C, with some models indicating temperatures up to 110°C.
Next Steps
Pulsar will integrate these passive seismic
results with existing geological and geochemical data to refine its
exploration model and identify optimal locations for future
drilling. Given the positive results to date, the Company is
assessing potential strategic partners to advance the Tunu Project
while it focuses on realising the helium production potential at
its Topaz Project in Minnesota, USA.
The Tunu Project Mineral Exploration
Licence
The Tunu Project comprises exclusive Special
Mineral Exploration Licence 2021-45 (MEL-S 2021/45) and a
Non-Exclusive Mineral Prospecting Licence. In accordance with the
‘Application procedures and standard terms for mineral exploration
and prospecting licences in Greenland’, in November 2024 the
Company applied for an exclusive exploration licence on normal
terms for part of the licence area that contains the Kap Tobin
prospect. The application is now showing approval status on the
Greenland registry, and the Company expects to receive formal
confirmation shortly. This licence will replace MEL-S 2021/45 that
was due to expire on 31 December 2024 and will have an initial term
of five years, which is extendable, subject to meeting certain
conditions, to a maximum term of 22 years.

Forward-Looking Statements
This news release and the interview contains
forward-looking information within the meaning of Canadian
securities legislation (collectively, "forward-looking statements")
that relate to the Company's current expectations and views of
future events. Any statements that express, or involve discussions
as to, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or
future events or performance (often, but not always, through the
use of words or phrases such as "will likely result", "are expected
to", "expects", "will continue", "is anticipated", "anticipates",
"believes", "estimated", "intends", "plans", "forecast",
"projection", "strategy", "objective" and "outlook") are not
historical facts and may be forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements herein include, but are not limited to,
statements relating to the potential impact for conducting
geophysical surveys and drilling future wells at the Tunu Project.
Forward-looking statements may involve estimates and are based upon
assumptions made by management of the Company, including, but not
limited to, the Company's capital cost estimates, management's
expectations regarding the availability of capital to fund the
Company's future capital and operating requirements and the ability
to obtain all requisite regulatory approvals.
No reserves have been assigned in connection
with the Company's property interests to date, given their early
stage of development. The future value of the Company is therefore
dependent on the success or otherwise of its activities, which are
principally directed toward the future exploration, appraisal and
development of its assets, and potential acquisition of property
interests in the future. No un-risked Contingent and Prospective
Helium Volumes have been defined at the Tunu Project. However,
estimating helium volumes is subject to significant uncertainties
associated with technical data and the interpretation of that data,
future commodity prices, and development and operating costs. There
can be no guarantee that the Company will successfully convert its
helium volume to reserves and produce that estimated volume.
Estimates may alter significantly or become more uncertain when new
information becomes available due to for example, additional
drilling or production tests over the life of field. As estimates
change, development and production plans may also vary. Downward
revision of helium volume estimates may adversely affect the
Company's operational or financial performance.
Helium volume estimates are expressions of
judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice.
These estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on
interpretations, which may ultimately prove to be inaccurate and
require adjustment or, even if valid when originally calculated,
may alter significantly when new information or techniques become
available. As further information becomes available through
additional drilling and analysis the estimates are likely to
change. Any adjustments to volume could affect the Company's
exploration and development plans which may, in turn, affect the
Company's performance. The process of estimating helium resources
is complex and requires significant decisions and assumptions to be
made in evaluating the reliability of available geological,
geophysical, engineering, and economic date for each property.
Different engineers may make different estimates of resources, cash
flows, or other variables based on the same available data.
Forward-looking statements are subject to a
number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the
Company's control, which could cause actual results and events to
differ materially from those that are disclosed in or implied by
such forward- looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties
include, but are not limited to, that Pulsar may be unsuccessful in
drilling commercially productive wells; the uncertainty of resource
estimation; operational risks in conducting exploration, including
that drill costs may be higher than estimates and the potential for
delays in the commencement of drilling; commodity prices; health,
safety and environmental factors; and other factors set forth above
as well as under "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking
Statements and Market and Industry Data" and "Risk Factors" in the
AIM Admission Document published on October 14, 2024 found on the
Company’s web site at
https://pulsarhelium.com/investors/aim-rule-26/default.aspx.
Forward-looking statements contained in this
news release are as of the date of this news release, and the
Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law. New
factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the
Company to predict all of them or assess the impact of each such
factor or the extent to which any factor, or combination of
factors, may cause results to differ materially from those
contained in any forward-looking statement. No assurance can be
given that the forward-looking statements herein will prove to be
correct and, accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance
on forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements
contained in this news release are expressly qualified in their
entirety by this cautionary statement.
