Quebec Innovative expands Temiscamingue hydrogen system

Executive Summary

• Quebec Innovative Materials Corp. has released new high-grade soil-gas hydrogen anomalies from four additional sampling lines west of its previously disclosed work in the Temiscamingue, Ontario natural hydrogen corridor.
• The new data expands the defined footprint of the hydrogen system from 11 kilometers to 15 kilometers and validates the company's proprietary fault-controlled natural hydrogen exploration model.
• The company plans to establish a regional office on Temiscamingue First Nation territory and is proceeding with winter exploration activities to prepare for a planned 2026 drilling program.

Key Details

• Sampling Campaign: Fall 2025 sampling campaign consisting of 647 soil-gas samples collected across four new westward lines: L20W, L21W, L22W, and L24W.
• Peak Anomaly: Line L24W recorded a peak hydrogen concentration of 2,843 parts per million (ppm).
• Hotspot Zones: Two newly defined hydrogen hotspot zones identified on lines L20W and L21W.
• Statistical Highlights:
  • 247 samples returned hydrogen values up to 1,849 ppm.
  • 12 samples exceeded 1,000 ppm.
  • 45 samples exceeded 500 ppm.
• Gas Composition: Analyses confirm the presence of high-purity, abiotic natural hydrogen with no detected contaminants.
• Strategic Expansion: The hydrogen corridor footprint has expanded from 11 km to 15 km, supporting a "geology-to-AI" off-grid energy strategy for applications such as remote computing and AI data-processing facilities.
• Community Partnership: A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) has been formalized with the Temiscamingue First Nation (TFN) to establish a framework for cooperative exploration, environmental stewardship, and shared economic benefits.
• Radon-Thoron Data: Measurements were collected to assess subsurface permeability and structural pathways; results are currently under analysis and will be reported in a subsequent disclosure.
• Winter Exploration Program (Ontario-Quebec):
  • Continued data collection from eight existing monitoring and measurement wells in the St-Bruno-de-Guigues area.
  • High-resolution geophysical surveys to refine subsurface structural interpretation.
  • Preliminary drill-site selection in advance of a planned 2026 drilling program.
  • Full integration of Ontario datasets into the Ontario-Quebec hydrogen corridor model.
• Corporate Action: Plans to establish a regional office on Temiscamingue First Nation territory.

Notable Quotes

• "What we are demonstrating at Temiscamingue is not just continuity of hydrogen anomalies, but the emergence of a district-scale energy system... The scale, consistency and predictability we're seeing support our long-term vision of natural hydrogen as a foundational energy source -- one that can ultimately enable new forms off-grid infrastructure, including data-driven and AI-enabled systems." — John Karagiannidis, CEO
• "The scale and operational predictability of this hydrogen system validate our assessment of localized, low-emission off-grid energy architectures, with demonstrated applicability to distributed infrastructure such as remote computing environments and AI data-processing facilities." — John Karagiannidis, CEO
