Brent, is this the press release that you were on about?
16 October 2025 Helix Exploration PLC ("Helix Exploration" or "Helix" or the "Company")
Helix Exploration PLC, the helium exploration and development company with near-term production assets within the 'Montana Helium Fairway', is pleased to announce breakthrough scientific results from its flagship Rudyard Project.
An independent study by Dr. Michael Hofmann of AIM GeoAnalytics has confirmed that rock cuttings from the Rudyard wells contain the same minerals that naturally generate hydrogen deep within the Earth-including serpentine, olivine, and magnetite. These minerals occur in mafic and ultramafic rocks, which release hydrogen when they react with water under heat and pressure, underscoring significant potential for geological hydrogen generation at the Rudyard Project.
Complementing these findings, prior isotope analysis by Durham University revealed a ³He/⁴He ratio of 0.74 Rₐ, showing a measurable mantle helium component-which demonstrates the chemical fingerprint of deep-Earth fluids rising into the Rudyard system.
