QIMC's Success in Geophysical Survey Unveils Potential for Hydrogen Development in Ville Marie Project
Key Ideas
- Non-invasive geophysical surveys in Quebec's St-Bruno-de-Guigues area reveal high hydrogen soil-gas anomalies, aligning with the hydrogen model proposed by Professor Marc Richer-Lafleche.
- Cutting-edge geoelectric tomography techniques provide detailed mapping of subsurface geological features, aiding in the understanding of hydrogen anomalies and reservoir structures.
- Partnership between QIMC and INRS aims to identify optimal areas for reservoirs by analyzing sedimentary rock sequences, utilizing advanced survey methods including geoelectric tomography and audiomagnetotellurics.
- The success of geoelectrical tomography in the electrically conductive terrain of St-Bruno-de-Guigues signifies a significant step towards locating deep-seated hydrogen sources for natural hydrogen development.
Quebec Innovative Materials Corp. (QIMC) has announced the successful results of geophysical surveys conducted in the St-Bruno-de-Guigues area of Quebec, revealing high hydrogen soil-gas anomalies. The surveys, carried out in collaboration with the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS), aim to understand the geology underlying these anomalies for natural hydrogen development in the Ville Marie project. The findings align with Professor Marc Richer-Lafleche's hydrogen model, suggesting potential deep-seated hydrothermal sources. Advanced techniques such as geoelectric tomography and audiomagnetotellurics are being utilized to map subsurface geological features and identify reservoir locations. The partnership between QIMC and INRS focuses on optimizing survey parameters to locate fractures and faults, essential for distinguishing sedimentary rock types. The success of geoelectrical tomography in the electrically conductive terrain of St-Bruno-de-Guigues is a significant milestone in the project's objective of locating deep hydrogen sources. These developments mark a positive step towards future exploration and natural hydrogen development in the region.
