MAX Power Engages Kyndryl to Commercialize AI Platform for Natural Hydrogen Exploration

MAX Power Mining Corp. (CSE: MAXX; OTC: MAXXF; FRANKFURT: 89N) has taken a significant step toward commercializing its proprietary AI-assisted exploration platform by engaging Kyndryl, a leading IT infrastructure services provider, to develop a comprehensive commercialization strategy and go-to-market plan for MAXX LEMI. The approximately nine-week engagement will see Kyndryl Consult conduct a technology review, market and competitive analysis, and business model assessment, culminating in strategic recommendations for potential commercialization pathways. This move underscores the growing importance of advanced data integration in natural resource exploration and positions MAX Power at the forefront of natural hydrogen exploration technology.

MAXX LEMI, or Large Earth Model Integration, is an AI-assisted platform designed to identify and rank exploration targets by integrating proprietary data from MAX Power's natural hydrogen exploration programs with extensive geological, geophysical, and other subsurface datasets. The platform has been instrumental in the company's ongoing commercial validation program at the Lawson Discovery in Saskatchewan, where MAX Power has confirmed Canada's first-ever subsurface natural hydrogen system through deep drilling, with data validated by three independent labs. By leveraging MAXX LEMI, MAX Power aims to enhance its exploration efficiency across its vast land positions, which total approximately 1.3 million acres (521,000 hectares) in Saskatchewan, prospective for large-volume natural hydrogen accumulations.

The engagement with Kyndryl is not just about optimizing internal exploration; it also opens the door to commercializing MAXX LEMI as a standalone product. Kyndryl Consult will assess opportunities to position and scale the platform for future growth and market adoption, potentially offering it to natural hydrogen explorers globally and for adjacent subsurface applications. This could create a new revenue stream for MAX Power while accelerating the global search for natural hydrogen, a clean energy source that could play a crucial role in the energy transition. The strategic recommendations from Kyndryl will help MAX Power determine the best path to market, whether through direct licensing, partnerships, or other commercialization models.

MAX Power's Lawson Discovery near Central Butte, Saskatchewan, represents a major breakthrough in natural hydrogen exploration. The company has built dominant district-scale land positions across Saskatchewan, covering prime exploration ground. Additionally, MAX Power holds a portfolio of critical minerals properties in the United States and Canada, including a 2024 diamond drilling discovery at the Willcox Playa Lithium Project in southeast Arizona, 100%-owned by its U.S. subsidiary. The company is committed to responsible exploration and development practices that prioritize environmental stewardship, meaningful community engagement, and strong corporate governance.

For investors, the engagement with Kyndryl signals a potential shift from pure exploration to technology commercialization, which could unlock significant value.
