Precision of Information: In a regulatory sense (especially for listed companies), saying discussions are "progressing" can mean the information has become "precise"—indicating a realistic prospect of a deal happening

Importantly, the operational success of this programme provides a strong foundation for the Company to progress discussions with potential industry partners and seek external investment to advance the project towards development. The Company intends to commence this process imminently.

Crusty they did say in the r.n.s as such, they are to progress talks with interested parties

Toffers

Thats right in the r.n.s they said now we progress talks with interested third party's

They are definitely further on than we know.

Per Launch Cost: Helium is surprisingly expensive, often costing SpaceX more than the liquid oxygen (LOX) used in the same flight. Recent estimates place the cost of helium for a single Falcon 9 mission between $300,000 and $1,000,000, depending on current spot prices.

Annual Expenditure: With SpaceX targeting 165–170 Falcon launches per year through the late 2020s, their annual helium bill could range from $50 million to $170 million.

10-Year Total (Projected):

Baseline Cost: ~$450 million (assuming stable supply and a rapid shift to Starship by 2030).

High-End Cost: ~$2 billion (assuming continued helium price spikes and a longer-than-expected reliance on Falcon 9).

Yes, SpaceX still requires helium for its current operations, though it is actively working to eliminate its use in future spacecraft to ensure long-term sustainability on missions to Mars.

Here is how SpaceX uses helium and where they are moving away from it:

Current Use in Falcon 9

The Falcon 9 relies heavily on helium for several critical functions:

Tank Pressurisation: As the rocket consumes fuel (RP-1) and liquid oxygen (LOX), gaseous helium is pumped into the tanks to fill the empty space (the "ullage"). This maintains the structural integrity of the rocket and ensures a steady flow of propellant to the engines.

Pneumatic Systems: Helium is used to actuate valves and deploy the landing legs on the first-stage booster.

Engine Spin-Up & Purging: It provides the initial pressure needed to spin up the turbopumps before ignition and is used to purge fuel lines of residual propellants.

Transitioning Away with Starship

SpaceX's next-generation Starship is designed to be "helium-free" for its primary systems, primarily because helium is not naturally available on Mars.

Autogenous Pressurisation: Instead of helium, Starship uses autogenous pressurisation—heating a small amount of its own liquid methane and oxygen into gas to pressurise its tanks.

Current Testing: During early Starship test flights, SpaceX has occasionally reverted to using helium for specific header tanks or engine purges to simplify the engineering during the development phase. However, the goal remains a fully self-sustaining system for deep-space travel.

Why SpaceX Wants to Stop Using It

Cost: Helium is extremely expensive, sometimes costing more than the actual rocket fuel.

Scarcity: It is a finite, non-renewable resource on Earth.

Technical Risks: Helium is notoriously difficult to contain; its tiny atoms leak easily, and helium system failures have caused numerous launch scrubs and even a pad explosion in 2016.

SpaceX is expected to use helium for at least the next 8 to 10 years, primarily to support its active Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launch manifests.

While SpaceX's long-term goal is to eliminate helium entirely, its current usage is split between two different paths:

1. Falcon 9 & Falcon Heavy (Ongoing Use)

These rockets are fundamentally designed around helium-pressurised systems and cannot fly without it.

Operational Lifetime: In November 2024, SpaceX executives stated they expect to continue selling and flying Falcon 9 missions for approximately 8 more years.

Transition Indicator: Sales of new Falcon 9 launches are expected to cease about 24 months before the

Why have he1 buried good news under a raise same as with the e.w.t this annoys the hell out of me this question needs to be asked at the next meeting.

Heard enough about blue star, come on lorna release some news about he1

🤣

All depends on what is recoverable in the ground it's a bit late but if it's 1 billion pound in the ground that would equate to 20p but that's going to a few years

2.8 bcf helium = 1 billion pound roughly 💪

Yes that's right Mr fridge.

I wonder if they will release it after the mining licence has been granted.

I watched it all myself at the weekend again she does say she will release f/s after the granting of the m/l i don't have time to find the specific time at the moment.

And yes whistler I know it's a offer at the moment.

Yes im very aware ofthe offer but in December she said at the a.g.m that they will release the f/s when the licence has been granted.

In the December a.g.m lorna said they will release the f/s after the mining licence is granted did she not?

Happy buy now and get your 10% trade on the way up say sell around 115?

Thanks good read. May your investment here grow.

Nope it was down anyone else confirm?

Oooohhh wonder what's a brewing under there.

Read my post again beasty 🤦‍♂️
