REV Exploration Finds Elevated Helium at Aden Dome, Plans Testing as US Declares Helium Critical

REV Exploration Corp. (TSX.V: REVX) (OTCID: REVFF) has identified highly elevated helium concentrations across multiple geological horizons during its maiden drilling program at the Aden Dome Property along the Alberta-Montana border, the company announced. Geophysical logs also indicated exceptional reservoir properties, supporting the potential for a new helium discovery in the Sweet Grass Corridor.

The company has contracted a service rig to begin evaluating the identified zones during the week of Nov. 2, 2026. Testing will focus on pressure, reservoir quality, gas composition and potential deliverability. Drilling also encountered a strong natural hydrogen show in the basement complex near the Basal Cambrian Sandstone Formation.

The results suggest helium migration and accumulation across multiple geological horizons, expanding potential targets for future exploration and development. REV expects the findings to help refine drilling targets at its nearby West Butte Project in Montana, approximately 20 miles west-southwest of Aden Dome, where it is preparing for its first drilling program.

The announcement comes as helium gains strategic significance. On Oct. 23, 2026, the U.S. Department of Energy designated helium as a critical material, citing its importance to semiconductor manufacturing, leak detection and quantum computing. That designation underscores the growing demand for reliable helium sources, particularly as supply concerns persist.

REV’s portfolio includes approximately 10,600 acres of oil and gas leasehold interests in Montana, additional leases in Alberta and an equity stake of 6 million shares in MAX Power Mining Corp. (CSE: MAXX) (OTC: MAXXF). The company also owns 12.4 million shares of Major Gold Corp., a private company pursuing a listing on the TSX Venture Exchange.
