Alaska Energy Metals Explores Potential for Natural Hydrogen in Quebec Project
Key Ideas
  • Alaska Energy Metals plans to conduct a hydrogen soil gas survey in Quebec to assess the potential for natural hydrogen accumulations, following the discovery of adjacent hydrogen soil gas anomalies.
  • The discovery of white hydrogen, a low-cost, low-emission, and renewable clean energy source, has sparked interest in natural hydrogen exploration for a sustainable energy future.
  • The project aims to evaluate source rocks, gas migration pathways, and potential reservoir rocks that could trap hydrogen gas accumulations, with soil gas sampling as the initial step in the process.
  • The company will collect approximately 400 soil gas samples to analyze the presence of hydrogen in the Lake Timiskaming Basin and Baby Greenstone Belt, potentially indicating the presence of trapped hydrogen gas below the surface.
Alaska Energy Metals Corporation has announced plans to conduct a hydrogen soil gas survey over a portion of its Angliers-Belleterre Project in Quebec to determine the potential for natural hydrogen accumulations. The discovery of hydrogen soil gas anomalies by Quebec Innovative Materials Corporation near the project area has piqued interest in the possibility of white hydrogen accumulations, which are naturally occurring geologically created hydrogen gas reservoirs gaining attention for their low-cost, low-emission, and renewable energy characteristics. The company intends to collect 400 soil gas samples to assess the presence of hydrogen within the Lake Timiskaming Basin and Baby Greenstone Belt, where potential gas migration pathways and reservoir rocks may trap hydrogen gas. Chief Geoscientist Gabe Graf expressed excitement over the discovery, highlighting the growing interest in natural hydrogen exploration globally. By analyzing the soil gas samples, Alaska Energy Metals aims to determine if the project area possesses the necessary geological features for white hydrogen accumulation. Ultimately, the survey aims to contribute to the future energy mix by potentially identifying sources of white hydrogen, aligning with the company's focus on sustainable delivery of critical materials for national security and an environmentally friendly energy landscape.
