Primary Hydrogen begins phase 2 exploration at Hopkins

Mr. Ben Asuncion reports PRIMARY HYDROGEN COMMENCES PHASE 2 FIELD EXPLORATION AT HOPKINS PROJECT Primary Hydrogen Corp. has commenced phase 2 field exploration at its Hopkins project in Ontario. The company has engaged Norda Stelo to conduct a focused sampling program comprising approximately 265 soil and soil-gas samples targeting both natural hydrogen and potential rare earth element mineralization. The fieldwork is expected to be completed within one to two weeks, with analytical results from gas readings and chemical assays anticipated approximately six weeks thereafter. "This marks our second exploration campaign at Hopkins and is designed to advance our understanding of both natural hydrogen potential and REE prospectivity," said Peter Lauder, vice-president, exploration, at Primary Hydrogen. "In addition to expanding our earlier soil gas sampling program, this phase will assess the rare earth potential along the Clay-Howells alkali carbonatite intrusive, which is known to host REE, thorium and iron mineralization." About Primary Hydrogen Corp. Primary Hydrogen is dedicated to the exploration and development of natural hydrogen resources. The company holds over 740 acres of prospective land in the United States and 230 square kilometres across Canada. Its portfolio includes the Blakelock, Hopkins, Mary's Harbour, Point Rosie, Crooked Amphibolite, Coquihalla and Cogburn projects. Primary also holds an option to acquire a 75-per-cent interest in the Wicheeda North hydrogen/rare earth element project in British Columbia.
