NEWS RELEASE | JUNE 17, 2025 | CASCAIS, PORTUGAL
PULSAR HELIUM ANNOUNCES UPDATE FOR JETSTREAM WELL TESTING PROGRAM AT TOPAZ,
MINNESOTA
Pulsar Helium Inc. (AIM: PLSR, TSXV: PLSR, OTCQB: PSRHF) ("Pulsar" or the
"Company"), a leading helium project development company, announces that the
well clean up and flow testing program for the Jetstream #1 and #2 wells at
the Company's Topaz Project in Minnesota is to commence in mid-July and is
scheduled to be completed in early-August. Drawing on research from
geologically comparable settings, the Company has tailored its well clean-up
procedure to ensure optimal results. The Company is funded for this work
program and the data will provide significant insights to the Topaz project's
production potential.
The Well Testing Program
The first phase of testing both Jetstream wells will commence with a clean-up,
whereby drill fines (rock dust) that are currently present in fractures and
partially coating the wellbore will be removed (refer to Pulsar news release
April 28th, 2025).
The clean-up operation will be carried out using coil tubing deployed into the
wells from a truck-mounted unit, eliminating the need for a drill rig, and
will involve treating the wells with a combination of water, nitrogen and NSF
60* compliant additives.
Following the completion of well clean-up, the next phase will consist of
pressure and flow testing operations at both the Jetstream #1 and #2 wells,
with samples collected for laboratory testing. Results will be released to the
market throughout the well testing program as they become available and have
been verified.
* NSF 60 = NSF 60 refers to the NSF/ANSI/CAN 60 standard, which is an American
National Standard that sets the minimum health effects requirements for
chemicals used in the treatment of drinking water. This standard ensures that
any chemicals, chemical contaminants, and impurities directly added to
drinking water during treatment do not pose unacceptable health risks to
consumers.
Thomas Abraham-James, President & CEO of Pulsar, commented:
"I am happy to announce that well testing of Jetstream #1 and #2 will soon be
underway. Following the encouraging pressure readings recorded during our Q1
drilling program, we're eager to recommence flow testing once both wells have
been cleared of blockages. The program is fully financed and will give us the
data we need to advance the Topaz primary helium project, creating the next
phase of exciting news flow for our stakeholders."
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 has now 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. Drilling of, the Jetstream #2 appraisal well was completed on
February 1, 2025, reaching a TD of 5,638 feet (1,718 metres). The deepening of
Jetstream #1 and completion of the drilling of Jetstream #2 are pivotal steps
in advancing Pulsar's strategy to address the increasing global demand for
helium as the Company moves another step closer to production.

Forward-Looking Statements
This news release and the interview 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 #1 and 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 deepening of Jetstream #1, the
drilling Jetstream #2 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 #1 and 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 https://pulsarhelium.com/investors/aim-rule-26/default.aspx
(https://pulsarhelium.com/investors/aim-rule-26/default.aspx) .
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. No assurance can be
given that the forward-looking statements herein will prove to be correct and,
accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking
statements. Any forward-looking statements contained in this news release are
expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.
