QI Materials Discovers Promising Hydrogen Anomalies in Témiscamingue Region
Key Ideas
- Quebec Innovative Materials Corp. reports successful geophysical surveys detecting high hydrogen soil-gas anomalies in Témiscamingue.
- The surveys confirm a deep-seated hydrothermal hydrogen source and potential gas presence in sediments, vital for future exploration.
- Partnership with INRS allows non-invasive geoelectric tomography to map subsurface features for natural hydrogen development in Ville Marie project.
- Audiomagnetotellurics and gravity surveys complement the geophysical studies to understand faulting, gas seepage dynamics, and regional geology.
Quebec Innovative Materials Corp. (QIMC) has revealed promising results from non-invasive geophysical surveys conducted in the St-Bruno-de-Guigues area of Témiscamingue, Quebec. The surveys were initiated following the detection of high hydrogen soil-gas anomalies during previous soil sampling activities. The CEO of QIMC, John Karagiannidis, expressed satisfaction with the results, which align with expectations and support the hydrogen model proposed by Professor Marc Richer-Lafleche. The geophysical data unveiled anomalies indicating potential hydrogen migration to the surface and the likely presence of gas in sediments. These findings are deemed crucial for the natural hydrogen Ville Marie project, enhancing the understanding of the area's geology and reservoir structures. QIMC collaborated with the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) to perform cutting-edge geoelectric tomography to map subsurface geological features without invasive drilling. Further surveys are planned, including audiomagnetotellurics and gravity surveys to investigate faults, gas dynamics, and regional geological variations. The comprehensive approach showcases a commitment to advancing natural resource exploration and technological innovations in the Témiscamingue region.
