Helium is a high tech gas, with many uses in multiple high tech applications:

MRI Magnets, Fibre Optic Cables for High Speed Internet, Airbags, Hard Drives, Chips in our Electronics, Cleaning Rocket Fuel Tanks.

The list is varied and demand is inelastic. They don’t function without Helium and world is in short supply, but Royal Helium is quickly proving that they may be the solution.

They have made a discovery, a big one; and in in just one well, and may have already proven up 500 billion cubic feet of inert gas. One Well. One Zone. Over a Million acres of prospective Helium still to be explored.

Royal Helium aimed to deliver a minimum of 1 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of total inert gas into the market, and this discovery clearly demonstrates they are on their way. With economic concentrations ranging from 0.33% to 0.94%, Royal has a real possibility of commencing production by the end of the year.

Royal discovered a 40m zone in Climax 3 and tested, cored and recovered the rock to test porosity to see how the gas flows. Expecting to find something similar in Climax 4, they actually found something bigger, much bigger. A zone 120m thick. About the size of twelve story building, containing elevated concentrations of Helium suitable for production. A normal producing area is considered high within a 5 meter range. Royal has a discovery multiples of the global average and they are still very early in their exploration process.

Sit back and enjoy this #SmallCap discovery as Andrew Davidson, CEO & Chairman of Royal Helium RHC: TSXV explains how Royal is putting Saskatchewan on the map with some of the highest historical helium showings while simultaneously developing Climax Nazare without delay or compromise.

If you think about balloons / blimps when thinking about Helium uses, we wouldn’t blame you … but you’d also be missing out on a much much bigger picture.

Looking beyond just balloons, Helium is a high tech gas, with many uses in rocket engines, semiconductors, electronics, and health care. These sectors pressure the demand for helium in concert, making it a gas in very short supply, causing the price to rise.

Saskatchewan is one of the only places on earth with current and past production of primary Helium. This is where Royal Helium comes into play as they are one of the largest land holders searching for Helium and recently announced that testing identified zones that range in thickness from five meters to in excess of 30 meters. These zones returned levels ranging from 0.33% to 0.94%, demonstrating the commercial potential of the Climax project

Worldwide usable Helium is in short supply as demand is increasing, making it a high-priced commodity, take a seat and discover why Royal Helium is the next SmallCap Stock to discover.

Royal Helium $RHC.ca Announces That Initial Testing Confirms Economic Helium Concentrations at Climax $DME.ca $APD $AHELF

Posted by AGORACOM at 8:47 AM on Tuesday, April 6th, 2021

Royal Helium Ltd. (“Royal” or the “Company”) (TSXV: RHC) is pleased to announce that initial gas sample test results have returned elevated and economic levels of helium concentration from multiple formations at the Climax helium project, with tests returning levels ranging from 0.33% to 0.94% from the Deadwood, Souris River and Duperow formations. The company will now commence long term production testing of the most prospective zones to confirm flow rates and ultimately resource size. 

The high graded production zones that are being tested range in thickness from five meters to in excess of 30 meters, with the ability to expand to even larger intersections. While these results are preliminary in nature and require additional confirmation, they do confirm the presence of economic helium grades on the Climax project, along with indicating that nitrogen will be the primary gas drive, though elevated levels of carbon dioxide are also present in certain tests. To date, testing has been focused on testing helium concentrations across the prospective zones with the highest level of helium detected during the drilling process. This initial concentration testing at Climax is expected to be completed over the next 10 days, following which the Royal will begin full flow testing and analysis which is expected to take an additional 30- 40 days.

Andrew Davidson, President and CEO of Royal comments “We are pleased with these initial results on our Climax helium project. Helium detection during drilling identified multiple zones of elevated helium in all three of the wells and follow-up completions testing confirmed economic helium concentrations. We look forward to the full flow testing results across all zones of interest in each of the three wells to confirm resource size and project commerciality. The fact that we have identified elevated and economic helium concentrations across significant pay zones as large as 30 meters speaks to the potential of the Climax Project.”
