As global helium reserves shrink and geopolitical risks rise, the U.S. is at a critical juncture. Pulsar Helium’s (PLSR) Topaz project in Minnesota could be the breakthrough that reshapes America’s helium landscape. With helium production declining domestically and the Federal Helium Reserve privatized, Topaz offers high-concentration, primary helium—direct from the source.
In this video, we explore:
- Why the U.S. must reduce reliance on foreign helium (Qatar, Russia)
- The science behind helium concentration and why Topaz stands out (up to 14.5%)
- How Pulsar’s partnership with Chart Industries could fast-track production
- Why primary helium projects offer more flexibility and security than by-product sources
- The long-term vision: turning Topaz into the next strategic helium reserve for the U.S.
- As demand for semiconductors, space tech, and quantum computing skyrockets, helium is no longer just a balloon gas—it's a national asset
What you'll learn:
- U.S. helium production is declining while global demand surges
- Foreign reliance—on countries like Qatar and Russia—is geopolitically risky
- The Topaz project in Minnesota has recorded up to 14.5% helium concentration—significantly higher than most global sources
- Helium is the primary economic driver, not a by-product of natural gas, making production more targeted and flexible
- Pulsar is actively drilling deeper and expanding laterally to model the full resource
- A technical partnership with Chart Industries supports scalable, commercial-ready plant design
- While most helium is tied to natural gas, Pulsar is pioneering primary helium production, setting a new industry standard
