QIMC-LED HYDROGEN EXPLORATION INITIATIVE EXPANDS INTO ONTARIO THROUGH STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WITH DIAGNAMED AND INRS FOR NATURAL HYDROGEN DEVELOPMENT

Quebec Innovative Materials Corp.'s proprietary exploration model, co-developed with the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS), will be deployed in Ontario through a strategic collaboration with DiagnaMed Holdings Corp. This expansion marks a major milestone for Quebec Innovative as its cutting-edge model, proven in the Temiscamingue region of Quebec, is now serving as the foundation for DiagnaMed's Ontario hydrogen exploration campaign.

The campaign, led by Dr. Marc Richer-Lafleche of INRS and supported by Quebec Innovative's technical team, will involve the collection of over 2,000 soil gas samples across DiagnaMed's Ontario land package. Members of the Temiscamingue First Nations will also participate in the campaign, reinforcing a commitment to inclusive, respectful and community-focused exploration.

Quebec Innovative's exploration model, successfully implemented in St-Bruno-de-Guigues, has delivered exceptional results that are now informing regional exploration strategies across North America. Key findings from the Quebec program include:

• Sustained high hydrogen (H2) concentrations directly tied to rapid, fault-controlled gas migration;
• Evidence of deep, actively replenished hydrogen sources, likely driven by radiolysis or iron oxidation processes;
• Clear identification of a textbook "advective fault" degassing system -- among the most compelling natural hydrogen systems documented globally.

"The fact that our model is now being adopted for DiagnaMed's Ontario campaign is a powerful validation of the work our team and partners have undertaken over the past two years," said John Karagiannidis, chief executive officer of Quebec Innovative. "This collaboration reflects not only the technical strength of our approach, but also the growing recognition of QIMC as a leader in natural hydrogen exploration in North America. We look forward to supporting this campaign and advancing scientific discovery in collaboration with INRS and DiagnaMed."

Quebec Innovative is committed to expanding its hydrogen development footprint across North America with collaborative, science-driven partnerships that respect local communities and the environment.
