MAX Power Mining Corp. (CSE: MAXX; OTC: MAXXF; FRANKFURT: 89N) has announced a significant step forward in its natural hydrogen exploration efforts in Saskatchewan. The company reported that interpretation of 3D seismic data at its 28-square-kilometer Lawson Complex has identified the first series of high-priority follow-up drill targets. This development paves the way for an expanded near-term multi-well program aimed at advancing commercial validation of its natural hydrogen system.
Surveying has been completed for six proposed initial well locations, with the first three drill targets finalized. The company expects well licensing in the coming days. The drilling campaign will focus on evaluating key commercial parameters including gas flow, volume, concentration, reservoir continuity, pressure response, and potential helium content. Real-time data will be used to refine exploration and production models.
In addition to the immediate drilling program, MAX Power is expanding its regional exploration efforts through aggressive 2D seismic data acquisition across the 475-kilometer Genesis Trend. The company believes this trend could host multiple additional natural hydrogen prospects. This expansion underscores the company's commitment to establishing a dominant position in the emerging natural hydrogen sector in Saskatchewan.
MAX Power holds approximately 1.3 million acres (521,000 hectares) of permits covering prime exploration ground prospective for large-volume accumulations of natural hydrogen. The company's Lawson Discovery near Central Butte, Saskatchewan, represents Canada's first-ever subsurface natural hydrogen system confirmed through deep drilling, with data validated by three independent labs.
The company also maintains a portfolio of properties focused on critical minerals in the United States and Canada, highlighted by a 2024 diamond drilling discovery at the Willcox Playa Lithium Project in southeast Arizona. MAX Power is committed to responsible exploration and development practices prioritizing environmental stewardship, community engagement, and strong corporate governance.
