Minnesota or the Moon: Pulsar Quantum Tech World
Pulsar Helium Inc. announced that its President will present a verified discovery of helium-3 at its Topaz Project in Minnesota at the Quantum Tech World Conference, highlighting its potential as a terrestrial source for this rare resource valued at approximately US$2,500 per liter. This discovery, confirmed by a U.S. government laboratory, is significant given the limited global availability of helium-3, which is crucial for advanced technologies like quantum computing and currently relies on nuclear weapons maintenance programs. The company emphasizes that its Minnesota project offers a practical domestic alternative to lunar extraction efforts, positioning Pulsar Helium to supply a critical material for next-generation technologies.

MINNESOTA OR THE MOON: PULSAR HELIUM TO PRESENT VERIFIED HELIUM-3 DISCOVERY AT QUANTUM TECH WORLD 2026
Pulsar Helium Inc. (AIM: PLSR, TSXV: PLSR, OTCQB: PSRHF) ("Pulsar" or the "Company"), announces that its President, Cliff Cain, will present at the 2026 Quantum Tech World Conference in Boston, where he will discuss the Company's discovery and independent verification of helium-3 at its Topaz Project in northeastern Minnesota.
- Cain's presentation, "Minnesota or the Moon: A Terrestrial Helium-3 Story" will highlight how Pulsar has confirmed the presence of helium-3 in gas produced from its Jetstream #1 well, with results verified by a U.S. government laboratory.
"Before the world spends billions launching rockets to extract helium-3 from the Moon, Minnesota offers a practical opportunity here on Earth" said Cliff Cain, President of Pulsar. "Our verified helium-3 discovery demonstrates the potential for domestic production of a rare and strategically important resource that could support next-generation technologies."
Helium-3 is highly sought after for a range of advanced technological applications, including the ultra-low temperature cooling systems required for quantum computing, and commands a significant value (currently estimated at approximately US$2,500 per liter, or more than US$18 million per kilogram). The rarity and strategic importance of helium-3 underscore the significance of the Topaz discovery. Given the limited global availability of helium-3, which has historically relied on production from nuclear weapons maintenance programs, a natural domestic source within the United States could represent a strategically important supply of a critical material for next-generation technologies.
As governments and private companies invest billions of dollars pursuing plans to extract helium-3 from the Moon, Pulsar is advancing a terrestrial source located in the United States and supported by existing infrastructure, workforce and regulatory systems.
The Topaz Project hosts one of the highest-grade primary helium discoveries in North America, where helium-3 has been independently verified at concentrations among the highest naturally occurring levels reported from a terrestrial reservoir anywhere in the world.
