MAX Power Mining Corp. (CSE: MAXX; OTC: MAXXF; FRANKFURT: 89N) has confirmed the presence of a natural hydrogen system at its Lawson 5 well, approximately 30 kilometers from its original Lawson Natural Hydrogen Discovery near Central Butte, Saskatchewan. The well reached a depth of 2,175 meters and recovered 62 meters of core, with geological observations identifying pronounced iron oxidation, alteration and serpentinization associated with elevated natural hydrogen levels. The announcement, disseminated on behalf of MAX Power Mining, underscores the company's growing evidence of an active hydrogen system along the western edge of the Prairie Evaporite.
Drilling is now underway at Lawson 6, approximately eight kilometers southeast of Lawson 5. The company has identified active, generative natural hydrogen systems in three areas spanning up to 365 kilometers across Saskatchewan, including the Lawson Complex, Lawson 5 and Bracken. This district-scale footprint is significant for investors because it suggests the potential for multiple hydrogen accumulations across a large land package, reducing reliance on any single discovery.
MAX Power has begun a completions program at Bracken, with testing at the Lawson Complex scheduled to follow. The program will evaluate hydrogen concentrations, flow rates, reservoir pressures and other characteristics needed to assess commercial viability. These results will be closely watched by the energy industry, as they will provide the first concrete data on whether natural hydrogen can be produced at commercial rates in Canada.
The company also reported raising approximately $1.66 million through warrant and stock option exercises between Sept. 1 and Oct. 15, 2026, providing additional capital to fund its exploration and testing activities. Additionally, MAX Power announced its participation in two Toronto investor conferences on Oct. 28 and disclosed agreements covering advisory services and expanded investor marketing activities.

The confirmation of a third hydrogen system is important because it validates MAX Power's exploration model and could accelerate the development of a new energy resource in Saskatchewan. If the completions program demonstrates commercial flow rates, it could attract further investment and position Canada as a leader in the emerging natural hydrogen sector.
