Exploring the Potential for White Hydrogen in Quebec's Lake Timiskaming Basin
Key Ideas
  • Alaska Energy Metals plans to conduct a hydrogen soil gas survey over its Angliers-Belleterre Project in Quebec to evaluate the potential for natural, white hydrogen accumulations.
  • The discovery of hydrogen soil gas anomalies by adjacent claim owner Quebec Innovative Materials Corporation indicates the possibility of finding hydrogen accumulations within the Lake Timiskaming Basin.
  • The formation of white hydrogen requires specific rock types, geologic processes, gas migration pathways, and reservoir rocks; Alaska Energy Metals' claims cover these features, indicating the potential for hydrogen gas accumulation.
  • The company aims to collect 400 soil gas samples to assess the presence of hydrogen in the basin and analyze the potential for hydrogen creation in rocks outside the basin, contributing to the low carbon energy landscape.
Alaska Energy Metals Corporation 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, white hydrogen accumulations. Recent soil gas sample data released by neighboring Quebec Innovative Materials Corporation revealed hydrogen soil gas anomalies in the Lake Timiskaming Basin, suggesting the presence of hydrogen accumulations. The company aims to collect 400 soil gas samples to evaluate the presence of hydrogen, with a focus on the fracture density and deep-seated faulting that may allow hydrogen pathways from below the surface. Alaska Energy Metals' claims cover source rocks, gas migration pathways, and potential reservoir rocks that can trap hydrogen gas accumulations, indicating the possibility of white hydrogen discovery. The company's Chief Geoscientist highlighted the growing interest in natural hydrogen exploration and the importance of identifying the right geological features for hydrogen formation. The planned work will help determine if the claims hold potential for white hydrogen gas. This initiative aligns with the industry's shift towards sustainable and renewable energy sources, positioning hydrogen as a key component of the future energy mix. The company's focus on environmental performance and responsible resource management underscores its commitment to sustainable energy development.
