Quebec Silica Resources Corp. ( (TSE:QIMC) ) just unveiled an announcement.
Quebec Innovative Materials Corp. has completed its first discovery hole, DDH-26-01, to 711 metres at the West-Advocate hydrogen project in Nova Scotia, intersecting a persistent hydrogen-bearing system from about 505 metres to the end of the hole. Visible gas bubbles at the drill head, surface measurements that exceeded the detection limits of field instruments even after large dilution, and independent analysis by INRS collectively indicate a live, pressurised hydrogen-generating system that remains open at depth.
Hydrogen concentrations were so elevated that multiple intervals surpassed the maximum detectable range of the GA5000 gas analyser and were confirmed by a second instrument at a minimum of 2,150 ppmV in diluted wellhead water, suggesting far higher concentrations in the reservoir. With Hole 2 already underway targeting similar structural zones and ongoing gas, water and core monitoring, the discovery materially strengthens QIMC’s position in the fast-emerging natural hydrogen sector and signals potential for a significant subsurface hydrogen resource at West-Advocate.
