MAX Power Mining Corp. (CSE: MAXX; OTC: MAXXF; FRANKFURT: 89N) has announced the engagement of GLJ Ltd., a Calgary-based energy consulting firm, to support the commercial evaluation of the Lawson Natural Hydrogen system in Saskatchewan. This move follows 3D seismic results that have significantly expanded the project’s interpreted scale, highlighting the potential for large-volume accumulations of natural hydrogen.
GLJ will focus on resource modeling, development potential, and optimization of an expanded drill program targeting natural hydrogen and helium across the 28 square kilometer Lawson Complex. The consulting firm will also contribute to the development of MAX Power’s AI-driven MAXX LEMI platform, which aims to enhance exploration efficiency.
The Lawson Discovery, located near Central Butte, Saskatchewan, represents Canada’s first-ever subsurface natural hydrogen system confirmed through deep drilling, with data validated by three independent labs. MAX Power has built dominant district-scale land positions across Saskatchewan, with approximately 1.3 million acres (521,000 hectares) of permits and an additional 5.7 million acres under application, covering prime exploration ground prospective for natural hydrogen.
This engagement is a critical step in advancing the project toward potential commercialization, as natural hydrogen is increasingly viewed as a clean energy source that could play a key role in decarbonization. The implications of this announcement are significant for the emerging natural hydrogen sector, as it moves from exploration to development. The expanded drill program, informed by GLJ’s resource modeling, could help quantify the resource and attract further investment.
MAX Power is an innovative mineral and energy exploration company focused on the shift to decarbonization. In addition to its natural hydrogen assets, the company holds a portfolio of properties in the United States and Canada focused on critical minerals, including a 2024 diamond drilling discovery at the Willcox Playa Lithium Project in southeast Arizona. MAX Power is committed to responsible exploration and development practices that prioritize environmental stewardship, meaningful community engagement, and strong corporate governance.
