MAX Power discovers major natural hydrogen deposits in Canada

Discovery of country’s largest natural resource in Saskatchewan could unleash a North American hydrogen energy boom, mining company says

North American mining company MAX Power Mining has announced the discovery of Canada’s largest known natural hydrogen resource in southeast Saskatchewan. The newly identified Rider Natural Hydrogen Project spans 1,244km² and features natural hydrogen concentrations as high as 96.4%. Historical data from the region has revealed impressive hydrogen concentrations, including 4% at Weyburn and 87.4% at Stoughton. These findings suggest a substantial and viable hydrogen resource in the area. The Rider Natural Hydrogen Project is located within the Torquay-Rocanville Corridor, a 200km long geological zone favourable for hydrogen accumulation. This area includes deep structures and fault lines that
