Helium's 1's up to 4.7% is from the Basement level neil777.
Helium1 also have elevated Helium shows in the Lake Beds, Red Sandstone and Karoo levels which Lorna Blaisse has not as yet shed any real light on - even though we know they have their own detailed Lab on site at the Helium1 base camp.
Just taking the Lake Beds levels - Noble Helium, our near neighbours, only drilled a shallow well and only went as deep as the bottom of the Lake Beds - through the Upper, Middle and Lower Lake Beds levels.
The detailed analysis they have just had back off those two wells, Mblele 1 and Mbele2 wells respectively showed large 2 reservoirs of helium, one being 148m (Mbelele-1) deep and the other being 271m deep (Mbelele-2). If you were to sit one of these on top of the other then it is virtually the height of the Rock of Gibralter. The analysis also confirmed high porsity and permeability.
That same analysis also confirmed a 10M to 15M Helium Gas Cap in the Lake Beds which was free flowing to the surface and which it looks like they are looking to monetise quickly and which should underpin a lot of their future progress.

So in my book we have information on the Lake Beds, Red Sandstone and Karoo levels still to come and more detail on the Basement. This was from the target depth RNS and prior to the 4.7% Helium and 2.2% Hydrogen RNS.
"Itumbula West-1 well successfully reached a total depth ("TD") of 961m measured depth ("MD") in Basement on 24th January 2024
· Elevated helium shows, over twenty times above background, have been consistently measured whilst drilling in the Lake Beds Formation, Red Sandstone Group, Karoo Group and Basement targets
· Helium shows increased in frequency and concentration across the encountered fault zones
· The well has also encountered elevated hydrogen shows, over two thousand times above background, in the Lake Beds Formation and sufficiently elevated in the Karoo Group and Basement"
