Québec Innovative Materials Corp. (CSE: QIMC) reported a record 30.0% H2 field reading at 413 metres in DDH-26-05 — then reported free gas reaching surface under apparent pressure between 413 and 416 metres, triggering repeated hydrogen alarms and halting the hole. Evidence for a mobile hydrogen-bearing system has strengthened. Evidence for reservoir performance has not. Benchmarked against MAX Power's completed-interval flow test at Lawson.
