Primary Hydrogen Acquires Two Projects in Newfoundland & Labrador

Vancouver, November 27, 2024 - Primary Hydrogen Corp. (TSXV: HDRO) ("PrimaryH2" or the "Company"), a natural hydrogen exploration company, is pleased to announce the acquisition of two hydrogen projects in Newfoundland and Labrador. The projects were acquired by the Company through direct staking based on prospective geology, namely crystalline basement rocks, which have the potential for naturally occurring hydrogen (NOH) through serpentinization.

"The acquisition of these two projects in the Canadian Maritimes represents the execution of our organic growth strategy of building a diversified portfolio of prospective hydrogen projects throughout Canada. These were identified based on prospective geology that was interpreted and evaluated by our industry-leading consultants who were also involved in the first commercial hydrogen discovery in Mali," commented Benjamin Asuncion, CEO of Primary Hydrogen. "This region is compelling due to the regional geology associated with each project, in addition to Federal and Provincial Government support for the development of hydrogen and related infrastructure in the province."

Mary's Harbour H₂ Project

The Mary's Harbour hydrogen project is comprised of 131 claims covering an area of 32.6 square kilometres. Mary's Harbour is located along the southeastern Labrador coast, characterized by mafic to ultramafic rocks associated with the Grenville Province. The region contains gabbros, pyroxenites, and peridotites, which are conducive to serpentinization and hydrogen generation. The area is intersected by several fault systems, including deep-seated thrust faults, which provide potential conduits for hydrogen migration from deeper crustal levels. The structural complexity of the region suggests the possibility of both hydrogen generation and accumulation: as ultramafic rocks and serpentinization provides the basis for hydrogen generation with faulting facilitating the accumulation and migration of generated hydrogen.

Point Rosie H₂ Project

The Point Rosie hydrogen project is comprised of 211 claims covering an area of 52.6 square kilometres. Point Rosie is located on the southern coast of Newfoundland, within a region characterized by mafic intrusions and volcanic sequences. This area is known for its extensive mafic dikes and sills, which are ideal candidates for serpentinization and hydrogen production. The region contains several prominent fault zones, particularly along the contact between mafic intrusions and older basement rocks, which serve as potential migration pathways for hydrogen originating from deep crustal or mantle sources. The presence of mafic intrusive rocks and faulting allows for serpentinization to occur along faulted contacts and for hydrogen to migrate through the fractured mafic rock units.
