The latest update is out from Helix Exploration Plc ( (GB:HEX) ).

Helix Exploration has expanded its leasehold at the Rudyard Helium Project in northern Montana to about 7,927 acres after acquiring a further 360 acres of State of Montana mineral leases at auction. The enlarged position secures control over the crest and primary flanks of the Rudyard Anticline, where all three of the company’s producing wells and its confirmed helium-bearing reservoir interval are located.

The company has increased its Rudyard footprint by roughly 43% since the original farmout, consolidating over the most prospective portion of the 10,600-acre structure. This comes as QatarEnergy’s force majeure on LNG operations removes about 30% of global helium capacity, elevating the strategic and pricing advantage of domestically produced U.S. helium, a niche where Helix is one of few dedicated producers with its own processing plant and fully domestic supply chain.
