Granite Creek Collaborates With New England Research on Geologic Hydrogen
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 16, 2024 / Granite Creek Copper Ltd. (TSXV:GCX)(OTCQB:GCXXF) ("Granite Creek" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the of the completion of work at the Company's copper-nickel-PGM Star project, located in the Polaris ultramafic complex of north-central British Columbia, Canada. The program consisted of rock and soil sampling focused on an area of the project underlain by dunite ultramafic rock that is prospective for Ni-Cu-PGM mineralization. In addition to sending samples to the laboratory for Ni-Cu-PGM analysis, Granite Creek is also providing samples of various rock types to New England Research Inc. (NER) to study the potential for geologic hydrogen (Geo H2) production at Star.
温哥华,BC / ACCESSWIRE / 2024年10月16日 / Granite Creek铜有限公司(TSXV:GCX)(OTCQB:GCXXF)("Granite Creek"或"公司")高兴地宣布已完成位于加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省中北部Polaris超镁铁岩体内的Star项目的工作。该项目主要包括对镍-铜-铂族金属矿化有潜力的榴辉岩岩体覆盖区域进行岩石和土壤采样。除了将样品送往实验室进行镍-铜-铂族金属分析外,Granite Creek还向New England Research公司(NER)提供了各种岩石样品,以研究Star项目产生地质氢(Geo H2)的潜力。
NER is a Vermont-based research and development company leading a recently funded $1.5 million project as part of a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA-E) Geologic Hydrogen program. These samples from Star will be used for laboratory analysis and testing to aid in the design and optimization of engineered stimulation of subsurface hydrogen. (See figure 1) Engineering the production of subsurface hydrogen could potentially unlock a substantial resource for clean energy and lead to the decarbonization of some of the most challenging industries.
NER是一家总部位于佛蒙特州的研发公司,作为美国能源部(DOE)高级研究项目署(ARPA-E)地质氢计划最近获得150万美元资助的项目的主导者。这些来自Star项目的样品将用于实验室分析和测试,以协助设计和优化地下氢的工程刺激。(见图1)通过工程化地下氢的生产,有可能开启一个清洁能源的重要资源,并有望实现一些最具挑战性行业的脱碳。
The NER team, which also includes scientists from Missouri University of Science and Technology (MS&T) and engineers from OptiRock Group LLC., will develop state-of-the-art testing protocols and fit-for-purpose modeling techniques to identify and assess sites where geologic hydrogen could be stimulated. The technologies will be commercialized through a series of paths, including measurement equipment, measurement and modeling services, characterization workflows, and solicitation of Phase III funding for field demonstration and deployment.
NER团队还包括来自密苏里科技大学(MS&T)的科学家和来自OptiRock Group LLC.的工程师,他们将开发最先进的测试方案和适用的建模技术,以确定并评估地质氢可能被激发的地点。这些技术将通过一系列路径商业化,包括测量设备、测量和建模服务、特征化工作流程,并寻求第三阶段资金用于现场示范和部署。
Dr. Gregory Boitnott, Vice President of Technology at NER and Principal Investigator on the project stated, "Inclusion of the samples provided by Granite Creek provides a unique opportunity to apply our developing technologies to Alaskan-type ultramafic intrusions, a potentially important future class of deposits where it may be possible to produce economic amounts of clean sustainable hydrogen."
NER公司技术副总裁兼该项目负责人Gregory Boitnott博士表示:“包括Granite Creek提供的样品为我们将正在发展的技术应用于阿拉斯加型超镁铁岩体提供了独特的机会,这可能是未来一个重要的矿床类型,可以生产经济量的清洁可持续氢气。”
Tim Johnson, President and CEO of Granite Creek stated, "Geologic hydrogen is an exciting new field with the potential to significantly lower the cost of hydrogen production and assist in de-carbonization of some hard-to-mitigate industries. We are fortunate that our Star project has potentially the right geological setting for this groundbreaking technology and look forward to receiving the results of the testing. The Company remains focused on our high-grade Carmacks copper-gold project in Yukon, Canada, where assays from 2024 drilling are pending while also investigating additional opportunities in Geo H2."
Granite Creek的总裁兼首席执行官Tim Johnson表示:“地质氢是一个令人兴奋的新领域,有潜力显著降低氢气生产成本,并帮助某些难以减缓的行业脱碳化。我们很幸运,我们的科创板项目有可能拥有适合这一开创性技术的地质条件,并期待收到测试结果。公司继续专注于我们在加拿大育空地区的高品位Carmacks铜金项目,目前正在等待2024年钻探的分析结果,同时也在探索Geo H2的其他机会。”
