NEWS RELEASE | MAY 29, 2026 | CASCAIS, PORTUGAL

PULSAR HELIUM ACQUIRES STRATEGIC SURFACE LAND AT TOPAZ HELIUM PROJECT,
MINNESOTA

Pulsar Helium Inc. (AIM: PLSR) (TSXV: PLSR) (OTCQB: PSRHF) ("Pulsar" or the
"Company"), a primary helium company, is pleased to announce that it has
acquired approximately 1,360 acres of surface land in Lake County, Minnesota,
located within its flagship Topaz Project (the "Acquisition").

The surface land was purchased in an arm's length transaction from Wolf Lands
Inc. for total cash consideration of US$2,480,000 to be satisfied through the
Company's existing cash resources. The newly acquired land lies within the
mineral rights that the Company holds under lease from a separate private
owner, and the area includes the location of the Company's Jetstream #7 (JS#7)
well.

Strategic Rationale for the Acquisition

Securing direct surface ownership across a key area of the Topaz Project,
including the JS#7 well site, further strengthens long-term operational
control as Pulsar advances toward production readiness.

Control of the surface land provides greater certainty for future
infrastructure siting, development planning and operational flexibility ahead
of the next phase of development.

Concentration of acreage footprint provides optimal scalability of the initial
and overall resource development.

Thomas Abraham-James, CEO of Pulsar, commented:

"This Acquisition, driven by our intention to develop Topaz into a significant
primary helium producer, builds on growing momentum at the project as we move
decisively toward production readiness. It also follows recent legislative
progress updating Minnesota's permitting framework for helium extraction. With
a clearer pathway now emerging toward future production, securing ownership of
the surface land overlying our leased mineral rights, including the site of
our Jetstream #7 well, provides Pulsar with increased operational control and
long-term development certainty as we continue advancing Topaz toward
production."

The Acquisition forms part of Pulsar's broader push toward production
readiness at Topaz. The Company recently concluded its Jetstream exploration
and appraisal program, with all wells drilled to date having encountered gas
under high pressure and is now obtaining quotes for the drilling of up to four
new production wells to supplement two production-ready wells already drilled.
It follows significant regulatory progress in Minnesota, where on May 26,
2026, Governor Tim Walz signed into law new legislation establishing a
helium-specific framework for gas resource development in northeastern
Minnesota, and the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources issued proposed
expedited permanent rules for permitting gas resource development on May 18,
2026.

These developments come amid a sharp tightening of global helium supply,
driven by disruption to the Strait of Hormuz, attacks on QatarEnergy's Ras
Laffan facilities, Qatar supplies approximately 35% of the world's helium, and
new Russian export controls in place through the end of 2027. In the United
States, some helium customers have already been subject to allocation measures
and surcharge notices from major industrial gas suppliers, underscoring the
urgent need for secure, domestic, primary helium supply.

Topaz, located in Lake County near Babbitt in northern Minnesota, is Pulsar's
100%-owned flagship project and one of the leading primary helium discoveries
in the United States. Unlike most global helium production, Topaz is a
high-grade primary helium discovery that is not associated with hydrocarbon
production. In preparation for production, Pulsar signed a Letter of Intent in
March 2026 with Chart Industries, Inc. for the supply of an integrated helium
liquefaction and CO₂ capture facility.

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
advancing the Topaz project towards first production; the establishment of a
clearer implementation pathway for future helium production; the Jetstream
exploration and appraisal program having materially de-risked future drilling
at Topaz; the Topaz project having the potential to support domestic supply
chains, create skilled employment in Northeastern Minnesota and contribute to
economic development opportunities across Minnesota; the potential of CO2
and/or Helium-3 as a valuable by-product of the Company's future helium
production; and the drilling of up to four new production 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; the ability to obtain all requisite regulatory approvals; and
that the State of Minnesota will complete the requisite rulemaking,
environmental review, permitting requirements and implementation steps to
allow for commercial production.

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 drilling
commercially productive wells; the uncertainty of resource estimation;
operational risks in conducting exploration, including that drill costs may be
higher than estimates; commodity prices; health, safety and environmental
factors; the risk that the requisite state rulemaking, environmental review,
permitting and implementation steps will not be completed; and other factors
set forth above as well as risk factors included in the Company's Annual
Information Form dated February 3, 2026, for the year ended September 30,
2025, found under Company's profile on www.sedarplus.ca
(http://www.sedarplus.ca) .

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.
