MAX Power Mining Reports Progress at Lawson Natural Hydrogen Well, Advancing Canada's First Subsurface Hydrogen System

MAX Power Mining Corp. (CSE: MAXX; OTC: MAXXF; FRANKFURT: 89N) reported promising progress at its Lawson 2 natural hydrogen well in Saskatchewan, where drilling has reached a measured depth of 2,370 meters. The company paused drilling ahead of a second coring phase after encountering a natural hydrogen-rich fracture zone in the basement complex. According to management, hydrogen readings at Lawson 2 have been stronger and more continuous than those recorded at the original Lawson discovery well, while helium spikes and geological observations continue to support the company's exploration model.

The Lawson 2 well is the first in a multi-well commercial validation program at Canada's first confirmed subsurface natural hydrogen system. The program aims to evaluate whether the Lawson discovery can demonstrate the flow, concentration, and reservoir characteristics required for commercial development. Following drilling and casing, completion testing will assess key performance metrics, and independent engineering firm GLJ Ltd. will review the results.

MAX Power's Lawson and adjoining Aurora projects give the company control of 1,852 square kilometers along Saskatchewan's Genesis Trend, which the company believes is highly prospective for multiple natural hydrogen systems. The company has built a dominant district-scale land position across Saskatchewan with approximately 1.3 million acres (521,000 hectares) of permits covering prime exploration ground for large-volume accumulations of natural hydrogen.
