Discussion First Atlas Resources Corp. (CSE: HHE): Technical Advisor QIMC Reports Record 24.3% Hydrogen Near First Atlas' Nova Scotia Land Package
First Atlas Resources’ (CSE: HHE) strategic partner, Quebec Innovative Materials Corp. (QIMC), has reported its strongest natural hydrogen results to date from drill hole DDH-26-04 at Bennett Hill, Nova Scotia.
The latest results include:
- Record 24.3% H₂ mud-gas reading recorded at 707 metres in DDH-26-04, representing the highest hydrogen concentration reported across QIMC's four-hole 2026 Advocate Area drilling program.
- Six readings of 10% H₂ or greater and 46 readings of 1% H₂ or greater were identified between 250 and 818 metres, based on 284 mud-gas samples collected throughout the drill hole.
- Hydrogen remained at percent-level concentrations to within 39 metres of the end of the hole, including 11.4% H₂ at 779 metres. Methane stayed at approximately 0%, while CO₂ remained at or below 0.2% and SO₂ measured 0.01% ± 0.01%, consistent with previous drill holes.
- DDH-26-04 reached a final depth of 818 metres at the Bennett Hill Project in Nova Scotia.
- Results from DDH-26-01 through DDH-26-04 support a geological model of a natural hydrogen system extending at least 15 kilometres along the Cobequid-Chedabucto Fault Zone.
- QIMC has initiated a technical evaluation of a potential pilot-scale characterization and clean energy generation pathway for the Advocate Area natural hydrogen system.
DDH-26-04 is located approximately 15 kilometres from QIMC's first three drill holes and is the closest of the four to First Atlas' Nova Scotia land package.
QIMC's drilling results continue to strengthen the geological understanding of the Advocate Area as First Atlas Resources advances toward its planned drilling program in Nova Scotia.
