MAX Power Mining Corp. (CSE: MAXX; OTC: MAXXF; FRANKFURT: 89N) has signed a memorandum of understanding with the City of Moose Jaw to jointly explore strategic opportunities related to natural hydrogen commercialization within the Regina-Moose Jaw Industrial Corridor. The partnership is intended to align regional infrastructure, industrial development, policy and economic initiatives as MAX Power works to position Saskatchewan as a potential hub for domestically sourced clean energy innovation and long-term economic growth.
The MOU supports advancement of the company’s Lawson Natural Hydrogen project toward commercial validation. MAX Power’s Lawson Discovery near Central Butte, Saskatchewan, represents Canada’s first-ever subsurface natural hydrogen system confirmed through deep drilling with data validated by three independent labs. The company has built dominant district-scale land positions across Saskatchewan with approximately 1.3 million acres (521,000 hectares) of permits covering prime exploration ground prospective for large-volume accumulations of natural hydrogen.
Natural hydrogen, also known as white or gold hydrogen, is generated naturally through geological processes and offers a potentially low-carbon energy source. Unlike green hydrogen produced via electrolysis, natural hydrogen does not require significant energy inputs for production, making it an attractive option for clean energy. The partnership with Moose Jaw could accelerate the development of infrastructure needed for hydrogen extraction, storage, and distribution, leveraging existing industrial corridors and economic zones.
MAX Power also holds a portfolio of properties in the United States and Canada focused on critical minerals, highlighted by a 2024 diamond drilling discovery at the Willcox Playa Lithium Project in southeast Arizona, 100%-owned by MAX Power’s U.S. subsidiary. The company is committed to responsible exploration and development practices that prioritize environmental stewardship, meaningful community engagement, and strong corporate governance.
