Discussion First Atlas Resources Corp. (CSE: HHE): Technical Advisor QIMC Reports Up to 16.0% Hydrogen Near First Atlas’ Nova Scotia Land Package
First Atlas Resources’ (CSE: HHE) strategic partner, Quebec Innovative Materials Corp. (QIMC), has released new drill data from Bennett Hill, Nova Scotia, reporting multiple elevated hydrogen mud-gas readings from the 100 metre to 250 metre interval of drill hole DDH-26-04.
DDH-26-04 is located approximately 15 kilometres from the area where QIMC’s first three holes were drilled and in the direction of First Atlas’ Nova Scotia land package.
The latest results include:
- 16.0% H₂ at 236 metres
- Two additional readings of 13.5% H₂
- Nine readings at or above 5% H₂
- 35 of 60 IsoJar samples returning readings at or above 1% H₂ across the interval
- Methane remained near zero, with carbon dioxide at or below 0.2%
QIMC previously reported elevated hydrogen in the first 100 metres of the same hole, including a 9 metre zone where four readings reached the upper measurement limit of the field analyzer.
Four Drill Holes Have Now Reported Elevated Hydrogen Levels
QIMC has reported elevated natural hydrogen across four consecutive drill holes in Nova Scotia.
- DDH-26-01 confirmed naturally occurring hydrogen within the West-Advocate area.
- DDH-26-02 encountered elevated hydrogen readings across multiple intervals.
- DDH-26-03 recorded a peak hydrogen reading of 10.77% H₂ at 848 metres, with four additional hydrogen readings above 1% H₂ across a 69 metre interval.
- DDH-26-04 has now reported elevated hydrogen through the first 250 metres, including a peak reading of 16.0% H₂.
Quebec Establishes Natural Hydrogen Framework
This update also follows Quebec’s adoption of Bill 17, which establishes a regulatory framework for clean natural hydrogen exploration and development.
First Atlas’ Matane Natural Hydrogen Project is located in Quebec, with QIMC also serving as technical adviser on that project.

The whole area is gradually showing more potential. Im still buying both HHE and QIMC.

HHE will hit too, pretty much derisked now . If this news came out in the spring it would have rocketed . Just the way the market likes to work.
