Protium Clean Energy Corp. has shared exciting news regarding its regional satellite gas survey in Central British Columbia, uncovering valuable insights into the area's hydrogen potential. The survey, covering approximately 22,000 square kilometers, focused on mapping the abundances of key gases, including hydrogen, helium, radon, methane, and carbon dioxide. Central British Columbia's rich geological composition, particularly mafic and ultramafic rock formations known for serpentinization, enhances the region's attractiveness for hydrogen exploration. The interaction of iron and magnesium-rich rocks with water facilitates the generation of hydrogen gas, complemented by deep fault systems that allow for hydrogen migration and accumulation. Noteworthy findings from the gas mapping include the confirmation of hydrogen presence, predominantly of geological origin, with high-abundance zones identified on the Company's claims. These areas exhibited minimal helium, methane, and carbon dioxide, with minor radon detected. The regional survey revealed nine high-abundance hydrogen zones, with deep hydrogen anomalies mapped using the Duplex Wave Migration (DWM) seismic imaging technique. Of the identified high-abundance hydrogen areas, four on the Company's claims showed deep hydrogen confirmation, indicating substantial potential for hydrogen reservoirs. Marc Branson, the CEO of Protium, expressed optimism about leveraging these results to guide the upcoming exploration activities and emphasized the importance of utilizing satellite surveys for identifying gas anomalies and prioritizing targets. The discoveries in Central British Columbia highlight the region's promising prospects for hydrogen exploration and potential commercial ventures.
