LONGHORN EXPLORATION PROVIDES UPDATE ON WORK PROGRAM: SUCCESSFUL HYDROGEN GAS MAPPING ON THE LILY ROCK HYDROGEN PROJECT IN KANSAS USING ADVANCED SATELLITE IMAGERY
Longhorn Exploration Corp. has provided an update on the work program that commenced on July 4, 2024, focusing on mapping gases in northeast Kansas. This initiative employs Sentinel-2 visible/near infrared (VNIR) and shortwave infrared (SWIR) satellite imagery to identify and map hydrogen and helium emissions.
Remote sensing and gas mapping
The use of remote sensing technology has enabled Longhorn Exploration to identify hydrogen and helium gases by detecting their unique emission features in the VNIR spectra collected from the Sentinel-2 satellite. These gases escape their underground reservoirs along faults or other geological pathways, leading to detectable changes in the landscape. The satellite data measures these changes in mineralogy and gas concentrations, providing a comprehensive view of the subsurface activity.
Key findings at Lily Rock prospect
The preliminary results of this work program have confirmed the presence of hydrogen and helium gases in and around the Lily Rock prospect. Significant findings include:
-
Mineral indicators:
The presence of minerals associated with hydrogen generation, such as serpentinite, has been identified throughout the Lily Rock prospect area.
-
Gas concentrations:
Varying concentrations of both hydrogen and helium gases have been detected.
Cat Campbell, exploration geologist and technical adviser to Longhorn Exploration and PureWave Hydrogen Corp., commented:
"We are thrilled with the initial results of our gas mapping program in northeast Kansas. The confirmation of hydrogen and helium presence at the Lily Rock prospect is a milestone for Longhorn and underscores the potential of our exploration efforts in this region. Utilizing advanced satellite imagery has proven to be an effective tool in identifying and mapping these critical gases and we look forward to further expanding our exploration activities."
Future plans
Building on these promising results, Longhorn Exploration intends to further its exploration efforts in the region by leveraging integrated reinterpreted 2-D (two-dimensional) seismic lines and aeromagnetic data. This approach aims to enhance the comprehension of the subsurface geological structures within the Kansas Lily Rock leases. The company is dedicated to deepening its knowledge of naturally occurring white hydrogen projects and playing a pivotal role in advancing the clean energy movement.
About Longhorn Exploration Corp.
Longhorn Exploration has the exclusive right and option to acquire PureWave Hydrogen's rights and obligations under three lease agreements, located in Kansas, United States, known as the Lily Rock hydrogen project, which allow for the prospecting, exploration, drilling and production of any substance including hydrogen gas. The company also has an option to acquire a 100-per-cent interest and title to the Fame property located in the Clinton mining division, British Columbia.
