Core Viewpoint - Pulsar Helium Inc. has signed an agreement with Sproule-ERCE to conduct a Pre-Feasibility Study for the Tunu helium-geothermal project in East Greenland, marking a significant milestone for the company as it advances one of the few primary helium occurrences in Europe [1][2]. Company Overview - Pulsar Helium Inc. is a leading helium project development company, publicly traded on the AIM market, TSX Venture Exchange, and OTCQB [11]. - The company holds exclusive rights for helium exploration in Greenland and has identified primary helium occurrences not associated with hydrocarbons [6][11]. Tunu Project Details - The Tunu Project is located on the east coast of Greenland, near Ittoqqortoormiit, and features helium concentrations in hot springs reaching up to 0.8% [5]. - The project also shows significant geothermal energy potential, with reservoir temperatures estimated between 80°C and 110°C, allowing for potential cogeneration of power and heat [5]. - A passive seismic survey conducted in 2024 identified two main low-velocity anomaly zones, indicating potential helium trapping reservoirs [6]. Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) - The PFS will evaluate geothermal opportunities alongside potential helium extraction, utilizing advanced geophysical data interpretation [7]. - Sproule-ERCE, with a strong track record in geothermal resource assessment, will lead the study, which is expected to be completed by the end of August 2025 [7]. - The PFS aims to provide a robust technical and economic foundation for future project decisions [7]. Licensing and Regulatory Status - Pulsar holds Special Mineral Exploration Licence 2021-45 and has applied for an exclusive exploration licence for part of the licence area, which is currently in 'License Pending' status [8]. - The new licence will have an initial term of five years, extendable to a maximum of 22 years, subject to certain conditions [8].
