Pulsar Helium Announces Major Flow Test Results at Jetstream #1, Topaz Project
THIS ANNOUNCEMENT AND THE INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN IS RESTRICTED AND IS NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN, INTO OR FROM AUSTRALIA, JAPAN OR THE REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA OR TO BE TRANSMITTED, DISTRIBUTED TO, OR SENT BY, ANY NATIONAL OR RESIDENT OR CITIZEN OF ANY SUCH COUNTRIES OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH SUCH RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION MAY CONTRAVENE LOCAL SECURITIES LAWS OR REGULATIONS. CASCAIS, Portugal, Aug. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pulsar Helium Inc. (AIM: PLSR, TSXV: PLSR, OTCQB: PSRHF) ('Pulsar' or the 'Company'), a leading helium project development company, is delighted to report major natural flow test results at the Jetstream #1 appraisal well, part of the Topaz helium project in Minnesota, USA. These latest results mark a major leap in well performance, with natural flow rates more than tripling those recorded in 2024. A summary of the results is as follows: On August 15, 2025 Jetstream #1 achieved a peak natural flow rate of ~501 thousand cubic feet per day (~501 Mcf/d) on a 38/64' choke at ~30 pounds per square inch (psi) well head pressure (WHP), achieved with no compression or stimulation. No formation water has been encountered; the gas has flowed as dry gas. Substantial improvement over 2024 tests: In April 2024, Jetstream #1 achieved a peak natural flow of ~150 Mcf/d at 34 psi WHP (~821 Mcf/d under well-head compression) with helium concentrations ranging from 8.7% to 14.5%; the well is now flowing at more than three times the rate recorded in April 2024 under similar pressure conditions. Significance and Next Steps: As Pulsar President & CEO Thomas Abraham-James stated in April 2024, the Jetstream #1 results confirmed a 'major new helium discovery, putting Topaz in the top tier of global primary helium projects'. The latest test program builds decisively on that foundation, validating Topaz's potential as a globally significant source of primary helium. Further updates imminent: Additional sustained-flow results, flow results under well-head compression, and full gas composition analyses are in the process of being obtained. When testing is complete, all equipment will then be moved to Jetstream #2 for equivalent testing. Thomas Abraham-James, President & CEO of Pulsar, commented: 'The deepening of the Jetstream #1 appraisal well to a total depth of 5,100 feet, penetrating the entire interpreted helium-bearing zone, has proven highly successful. The well is now naturally flowing at ~501 thousand cubic feet per day at 30 pounds per square inch WHP, more than three times the peak natural flow achieved in 2024. This result validates our subsurface model, significantly de-risks the Topaz project, and confirms the reservoir's outstanding productivity. This is especially exciting considering the 2024 gas analysis for the same well returned helium concentrations ranging from 8.7% to 14.5%. With further flow testing, including under well-head compression, and gas composition analyses to follow, we look forward to sharing further updates, and the results of Jetstream #2. These results underscore the immense opportunity at Topaz and signal the start of unlocking its full potential.' Test Results and Analysis The Jetstream #1 well delivered a maximum natural flow rate of ~501 thousand cubic feet per day (Mcf/d) during open-flow testing on August 15, 2025. This was observed on a 38/64-inch choke at approximately 30 psi WHP, without compression assistance. By comparison, during initial appraisal in April 2024, Jetstream #1 reached a peak natural flow of ~150 Mcf/d at 34 psi. The improvement of more than threefold under near-identical pressure conditions highlights the effectiveness of recent wellbore clean-up and deepening and underscores the formation's strong productivity. Importantly, no formation water has been encountered, the gas has flowed as dry gas. In addition to the peak result, Jetstream #1 demonstrated stable long-duration flows, producing 150–300 Mcf/d for periods of 12–18 hours on smaller choke sizes. These sustained flows showed no significant decline and were followed by rapid pressure recovery, indicating excellent reservoir recharge capacity. Compression Testing and Expected Upside To further assess the well's maximum capacity, Pulsar is commencing a compression-assisted flow test. By reducing WHP via surface compression, flow rates are expected to increase significantly. For reference, compression applied during the February 2024 test program resulted in a maximum flow rate of ~821 Mcf/d. The current test is designed to validate Jetstream #1's full potential and provide key data for production facility design and future development planning. A Brief Explanation of Flow Testing Under 'Natural' Conditions and Under 'Compression' When a well produces under natural flow, the gas comes to surface on its own, pushed out purely by the pressure in the reservoir. It's a strong indicator of how much energy the reservoir holds. With compression, special surface equipment is used to lower the pressure at the wellhead, which makes it easier for the gas to flow out. This doesn't change the size of the reservoir, but it allows much higher flow rates and gives a clearer picture of the well's maximum production potential. About the Topaz Project The Topaz project is located in northern Minnesota, USA where Pulsar is the first mover and holds exclusive leases. Drilling at the Jetstream #1 appraisal well reached total depth ('TD') of 5,100 feet (1,555 metres) on January 11, 2025, successfully penetrating the entire interpreted helium-bearing reservoir and beyond. The Jetstream #1 appraisal well previously reached TD of 2,200 feet (671 metres) on February 27, 2024, identifying top-tier helium concentrations of up to 14.5%, well above the 0.3% widely accepted economic threshold, and flowed at a rate of 821,000 cubic feet per day under well-head compression. Drilling of the Jetstream #2 appraisal well was completed on February 1, 2025, reaching a TD of 5,638 feet (1,718 metres). These activities will progress Pulsar's strategy become a producer of helium, addressing increasing global demand. On behalf of Pulsar Helium Inc.

Forward-Looking Statements This news release contains forward-looking information within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation (collectively, "forward-looking statements") that relate to the Company's current expectations and views of future events. Any statements that express, or involve discussions as to, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, through the use of words or phrases such as "will likely result", "are expected to", "expects", "will continue", "is anticipated", "anticipates", "believes", "estimated", "intends", "plans", "forecast", "projection", "strategy", "objective" and "outlook") are not historical facts and may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements herein include, but are not limited to, statements relating to the completion of the flow testing and pressure build up tests of Jetstream #2, the timing of completion of the flow testing and pressure testing; the potential impact of the drill results, flow testing and pressure testing on the next iteration of the resource estimate; the potential of CO2 as a valuable by-product of the Company's future helium production; and the potential for future wells. Forward-looking statements may involve estimates and are based upon assumptions made by management of the Company, including, but not limited to, the Company's capital cost estimates, management's expectations regarding the availability of capital to fund the Company's future capital and operating requirements and the ability to obtain all requisite regulatory approvals. No reserves have been assigned in connection with the Company's property interests to date, given their early stage of development. The future value of the Company is therefore dependent on the success or otherwise of its activities, which are principally directed toward the future exploration, appraisal and development of its assets, and potential acquisition of property interests in the future. Un-risked Contingent and Prospective Helium Volumes have been defined at the Topaz Project. However, estimating helium volumes is subject to significant uncertainties associated with technical data and the interpretation of that data, future commodity prices, and development and operating costs. There can be no guarantee that the Company will successfully convert its helium volume to reserves and produce that estimated volume. Estimates may alter significantly or become more uncertain when new information becomes available due to for example, additional drilling or production tests over the life of field. As estimates change, development and production plans may also vary. Downward revision of helium volume estimates may adversely affect the Company's operational or financial performance. Helium volume estimates are expressions of judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. These estimates are imprecise and depend to some extent on interpretations, which may ultimately prove to be inaccurate and require adjustment or, even if valid when originally calculated, may alter significantly when new information or techniques become available. As further information becomes available through additional drilling and analysis the estimates are likely to change. Any adjustments to volume could affect the Company's exploration and development plans which may, in turn, affect the Company's performance. The process of estimating helium resources is complex and requires significant decisions and assumptions to be made in evaluating the reliability of available geological, geophysical, engineering, and economic date for each property. Different engineers may make different estimates of resources, cash flows, or other variables based on the same available data. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company's control, which could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those that are disclosed in or implied by such forward- looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, that Pulsar may be unsuccessful in completing the flow testing and pressure testing of Jetstream #2, in drilling commercially productive wells; the uncertainty of resource estimation; operational risks in conducting exploration, including that flow-testing, pressure testing and drill costs may be higher than estimates ; commodity prices; health, safety and environmental factors; and other factors set forth above as well as under "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements and Market and Industry Data" and "Risk Factors" in the AIM Admission Document published on October 14, 2024 found on the Company's web site at and the Company's Annual Information Form dated as of July 31, 2025 found on the Company's profile at Forward-looking statements contained in this news release are as of the date of this news release, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all of them or assess the impact of each such factor or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.

Thor Explorations Announces High Grade Mineralisation Intersected at Segilola
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 18, 2025) - Thor Explorations Ltd (TSXV: THX) (AIM: THX) ("Thor Explorations", "Thor" or the "Company"), is a West African-focussed minerals exploration and mining Company, that is currently producing gold from its wholly owned Segilola Gold Mine in Nigeria and is advancing its exploration properties in Senegal and Côte d'Ivoire, including the Douta Gold Project in Senegal which is being advanced towards development. Thor is pleased to announce further positive results from an advanced diamond drilling program at the Segilola Gold Mine ("Segilola"), which is targeting potential mineralisation beneath the current open pit with the objective of extending the Segilola mine life. Highlights include: Drillhole SNMDD060 - 4.2 metres ("m") at 12.4 grammes per tonne ("g/t") of gold ("Au") from 295m Drillhole SNMDD061 - 2m at 17.86g/tAu from 195.5m Drillhole SNMDD061 - 4.5m at 3.71g/tAu from 222m Drillhole SNMDD059 - 5.9m at 6.0g/tAu from 291m Segun Lawson, President & CEO, stated: "We are delighted to report continued positive progress from our deep diamond drilling program at Segilola, which has generated several significant gold intersections below the current open pit design. This program, which continues to evolve, has been designed to further explore the along-strike down-plunge trend of the deposit. "One of our key corporate priorities as a Company is to extend the Segilola mine life, and the ongoing drilling program has been designed to do this by both upgrading parts of the remaining inferred resource and increasing the size of the overall underground resource to support a longer life-of-mine at Segilola. "We are encouraged by these results, which demonstrate continued high grade mineable mineralisation beneath the pit and look forward to testing these targets, which remain open. We will also review the options of recovering these additional ounces by deepening the Segilola open pit. We have increased our exploration budget to $11.5m for the year and also look forward to commissioning the Company's drilling rigs, which will enable a faster, more flexible drilling program." Introduction The Segilola Gold Project is located 190 kilometres ("km") northeast of Lagos and covers a large area of the Pan African Ilesha Schist Belt. The deposit is located near the north-east trending Ifewara Shear Zone that extends for several hundred kilometres through Nigeria. Gold mineralisation is developed within an overturned sequence of metamorphosed, strongly foliated meta-sediments at the boundary between the basement biotite gneiss and calc-silicate and mylonitic biotite-garnet schists. A unit of massive to foliated granodiorite conformably intrudes the sequence between the quartzites and basement gneisses. Gold mineralisation is developed with steep west-dipping parallel lodes that comprise late-stage silica-altered zones that are commonly referred to as "veins" and which are restricted to the meta-sedimentary unit. Drilling Results The Segilola ore body is characterised by a pronounced southerly plunging geometry. A diamond drilling program that commenced in 2024 is continuing to test the continuity of mineralisation following the down-plunge trend to the south. To date, a total of 60 holes have been completed for 16,520m. Drill sampling is being carried out using NQ diamond core. Half core samples are analysed by fire assay at the Company's laboratory which was established by MSA Laboratories at the Segilola Mine Site. The final assay results are an average of the primary assay result (Au1) and two additional fire assays of the same pulp (AuR1 and AuR2). Further QAQC work is being carried out by MSA Laboratories. Significant intersections are calculated by reporting above a lower cut off grade of 0.5g/tAu over a minimum interval length of 0.5m with a maximum internal dilution of 1m allowed. Significant results that exceed 3 gramme-metres (average grade x true width) are shown in Table 1. All results are tabled in Appendix 1. Drillhole locations are shown in Figure 1.

The Southern Zone is characterised by four stacked parallel lodes that dip at about 600 towards the west. In this area the western-most, or hanging wall, lode, which is referred to as the 400 Lode, is typically 0.5 to 3m thick and notable for elevated grades. For example, 400 Lode intersections include 2m grading 17.86g/tAu in SNMDD061. The main mineralised structure in the Southern Zone is referred to as the 300 Lode and is typically more continuous with true widths of 3-5m. Significant intersections of the 300 Lode from the current drilling include 5.9m grading 6.0g/tAu in drillhole SNMDD059 and 4.2m grading 12.48g/tAu in drillhole SNMDD060. Figure 1: Drillhole Location Map and Cross Sections To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: Figure 2: Longitudinal Section Showing Gramme-Metre Contours and Drill Intercepts To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: Next Steps The preliminary economic assessment ("PEA") completed in 2018 included an "underground" indicated resource of 28,000 ounces grading 9.4g/tAu, together with an inferred resource of 90,000 ounces grading 7.9g/tAu. Given the fundamental change in the project economics brought about by the current record gold price, the Company will review the option of further extending the open pit as opposed to transitioning, in the short term, to an underground operation. The current program is targeting both upgrading the inferred resource below the pit and increasing the overall size of the resource with the objective of increasing the life of mine at Segilola. Ongoing work streams will also incorporate geotechnical and metallurgical studies.

Air Canada grounded as striking union defies order to get back to work
By Allison Lampert, Promit Mukherjee and Gertrude Chavez-Dreyfuss MONTREAL (Reuters) -Air Canada's fleet of hundreds of planes remained grounded on Monday morning after striking flight attendants refused a government-backed order to get back to work and called on the airline to return to the bargaining table. The carrier, which normally carries 130,000 people daily and is part of the global Star Alliance of airlines, had planned to start ramping up operations on Sunday evening, after a labor relations board ordered the union to return to work and start binding arbitration. The union said no, setting up an almost unprecedented standoff with the Canadian government, which had requested the back-to-work order. The Canadian Union of Public Employees, which represents 10,000 Air Canada cabin crew, had pushed for a negotiated solution, saying binding arbitration would take pressure off the airline. The attendants are striking for better wages and to be paid for work on the ground, such as boarding passengers. They currently are only paid when planes are moving, sparking some vocal support from Canadians on social media. CUPE invited Air Canada back to the table to "negotiate a fair deal," calling the order to end its strike unconstitutional. The airline said it would delay plans to restart operations from Sunday until Monday evening and described the union as illegally defying the labor board. The government's options to end the strike now include asking courts to enforce the order to return to work and seeking an expedited hearing. The minority government could also try to pass legislation that would need the support of political rivals and approval in both houses of parliament, which are on break until September 15. "The government will be very reticent to be too heavy-handed because in Canada the Supreme Court has ruled that governments have to be very careful when they take away the right to strike, even for public sector workers that may be deemed essential," said Dionne Pohler, professor of dispute resolution at Cornell University's Industrial and Labor Relations School. Another option is to encourage bargaining, Pohler said. The government did not respond to requests for comment. On Saturday, Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberal government moved to end the strike by asking the Canada Industrial Relations Board to order binding arbitration. The CIRB issued the order, which Air Canada had sought, and unionized flight attendants opposed. The previous government, under former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, intervened last year to head off rail and dock strikes that threatened to cripple the economy, but it is highly unusual for a union to defy a CIRB order. The CUPE said its rejection was unprecedented when such an order was made according to rules, known as Section 107, that the government invoked in this case. Travelers at Toronto Pearson International Airport over the weekend said they were confused and frustrated about when they would be able to fly. Italian Francesca Tondini, 50, sitting at the Toronto airport, said she supported the union even though she had no idea when she would be able to return home. "They are right," she said with a smile, pointing at the striking attendants. The dispute between cabin crews and Air Canada hinges on the way airlines compensate flight attendants. Most, including Air Canada, have traditionally paid them only when planes are in motion. In their latest contract negotiations, flight attendants in both Canada and the United States have sought compensation for hours worked, including for tasks such as boarding passengers. New labor agreements at American Airlines and Alaska Airlines legally require carriers to start the clock for paying flight attendants when passengers are boarding. American's flight attendants are now also compensated for some hours between flights. United Airlines' cabin crews, who voted down a tentative contract deal last month, also want a similar provision.
