BENTON AND METALS CREEK ACQUIRE AN ADDITIONAL 262 CLAIM UNITS AT SMOKING GUN HYDROGEN-HELIUM IN NEWFOUNDLAND, AWAIT FINAL RESULT FROM SOIL GAS SAMPLING PROGRAM

Metals Creek Resources Corp. and Benton Resources Inc. have acquired an addition 262 claim units through staking, expanding the Smoking Gun hydrogen/helium project in the Deer Lake basin. The companies are currently awaiting results from the recently completed (see news release dated Aug. 18, 2026) soil gas program. This program entailed two regional soil gas programs at Parson's Pond and Smoking Gun hydrogen-helium projects. Rudy Willick of Rudiger Re-Chem from Neuanlage, Sask., oversaw the execution and implementation of these programs. The companies will plan an inaugural drill program to test favourable targets for hydrogen (H) and helium (He) after compiling the results.

Both these projects are located in Western Newfoundland and cover large portions of prospective large sedimentary basins (Parson's Pond basin and Deer Lake basin), which have been under explored for both H and He. Both basins are interpreted to be highly prospective environments to host both H and He with the presence of porous sandstones and conglomerates with associated mudstones and shales capping these formations. More importantly, the presence of chrome, serpentine with associated groundwater provide the mechanism to produce hydrogen including regional fault structures providing a pathway for H or He to migrate to the structural trap.

Please note that the presence of gas or methane on these staked projects or gas discovered on adjacent properties does not guarantee the presence of hydrogen or helium. Further studies are required to validate their presence.
