Primary Hydrogen Corp. announced the schedule for the next phase of its exploration field programs across its Canadian project portfolio. The second phase (Phase 2), involving detailed field sampling and mapping of high-priority targets, is set to begin in the coming weeks. This program will be conducted in partnership with the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS), leveraging industry-leading practices for soil gas sampling to ensure accurate and reliable results.

“Our Phase 2 exploration program marks a critical step in unlocking Canada’s natural H₂ potential,” said Benjamin Asuncion, CEO of Primary Hydrogen. “By combining rigorous sampling techniques with INRS’s expertise, we aim to gather high-quality data that will refine our exploration model and advance our projects with precision and confidence.”

PHASE 2 EXPLORATION PROGRAM OVERVIEW

The Phase 2 program will focus on:

• Soil and gas sampling: Collecting samples on a 200m x 400m grid, strategically adjusted for local terrain and targeting geophysical anomalies, faults, and geographical features such as forest rings or fairy circles.
• Prospecting and mapping: Detailed field mapping to enhance geological understanding of priority targets.
• Advanced analysis: Utilizing portable gas detectors for real-time, in-field results, complemented by laboratory chromatography to analyze multiple elements (gas and minerals).

Developed in collaboration with INRS, the sampling methodology employs laboratory-verified techniques to minimize artificial H₂ generation during collection, ensuring consistent and dependable results. The data will inform subsequent exploration phases, increasing confidence in identifying the source of anomalous H₂ readings.
