Presentation.
We are pleased to announce the presence of
#helium
enriched gas in drilling mud in the Lake Bed Formation while drilling Tai-1 well at the Rukwa Project in
#Tanzania
…Helium shows identified in shallow strata from 70.5 metres.
Here, our
#HE1
CEO David Minchin expands about our sidetracking operations…
…We have drilled from surface to 561m keeping our drilling rates moderated to ensure consistency of mud quality in what has been a variable stratigraphy.

We are pleased to provide the
following
#HE1
update on the completion of the Itumbula West-1 well which saw
#helium
flow to surface.
We are pleased to announce that drilling on the
#HE1
Tai-3 well has successfully recommenced.
Replacement rig component sourced and installed with drilling activities successfully restarted on Tai-3.
“…Flowing
#helium
to surface in such high concentrations is a huge milestone for the Company…and we will aim to achieve commerciality at the earliest opportunity…”
#HE1
CEO Lorna Blaisse
We look forward to announcing results of our first well at what is a potentially transformative time for
#HE1
Here, you can see the end of a busy day on the rig.

We are pleased to provide the following update on the drilling of the
#HE1
Tai-3 well
The Tai-3 well has successfully encountered
#helium
shows whilst drilling in the Lake Bed Formation and the Karoo Group
Our Tai prospect is believed to be larger than interpreted from historical data which has contributed to the Technical Team's decision to upgrade Tai from a 'low-priority' to 'must-drill' target.
Here, you can see the Tai well site levelling and clearing underway.
Helium One commenced exploration drilling at the
#HE1
flagship Rukwa Project in Tanzania at 4pm local time on Saturday 12(th) June.
Rukwa is a globally unique, large-scale, high-grade, primary helium project in
#Tanzania
"..With over 1000 metres still to drill at Tai-1 these are early days in our exploration drilling. Early
#helium
shows give us a great deal of optimism for the remaining programme and we look forward to providing further updates..”
#HE1
CEO David Minchin
Good morning from our
#HE1
Rukwa Project in Tanzania…
…With over 1000 metres still to drill at Tai-1 the early
#helium
shows give us a great deal of optimism for the remaining programme and we look forward to providing further updates as the project develops.
“…We are delighted with the initial results at Tai-3 and it was extremely encouraging to see the
#helium
shows increase with depth, as we had anticipated…”
#HE1
CEO Lorna Blaisse
We are pleased to announce the completion of our
#HE1
extended infill 2D seismic campaign and identification of new priority drill ready targets ahead of commencement of exploration drilling programme at our Rukwa Project in
#Tanzania
Camp setup being finalised at site ready to receive full drill crew and personnel.
"…The next few months promise to be an incredibly exciting time for
#HE1
as we commence spud this month and complete these two wells…”
CEO Lorna Blaisse
We are pleased to announce the completion of a multispectral satellite spectroscopy study which has identified multiple additional surface helium anomalies at Rukwa, Eyasi and Balangida project areas…
#HE1
#Helium
Drilling equipment has left Mozambique on route to
#Tanzania
We will continue to fast-track the
#HE1
development programme of our Rukwa project. Drilling equipment will be kept in the field to carry out appraisal work immediately following intended exploration success...
Our
#HE1
pad construction operation is now well underway for our planned exploration drilling programme at our Rukwa Project in
#Tanzania
.
Here, the first layer of gravel has been spread and the cellar has been dug...
We are pleased to update the market on progress at our Rukwa Project in

#HE1
ordinary shares will cross-trade publicly on the US OTCQB Venture Market.
It is a 24hr Operation with back to back crews covering day/night shifts.
The
#HE1
Rukwa Project has been derisked by the 2021 drilling campaign, which identified helium shows across multiple prospective intervals proving and established working
#helium
system.
Here, you can see Gravel has arrived on site.
Now the pad construction can start in earnest for our planned exploration drilling programme at our Rukwa Project in
#Tanzania
.
Drilling has commenced at our
#HE1
Tai prospect which has been chosen as our first well because of the presence of stacked targets within a well-defined structural closure.
We hope to identify multiple zones with quality seal potential to assist in planning subsequent wells…
We have been pleased to update the market on our recent
#HE1
progress at our Rukwa Project in Tanzania with drilling rig and equipment now mobilised.
Here, is a short video of a recent rig inspection...
“…The team have done an outstanding job working proactively to ensure we were able to safely pull the drill string out of the hole. This surpassed all expectations and we’re delighted to now be in the position of having commenced wireline operations…”
#HE1
CEO Lorna Blaisse
Our
#HE1
pad construction operation is now fully underway for our planned exploration drilling programme at our Rukwa Project in
#Tanzania

#HE1
Phase II drilling programme.
Civils work underway at the
#HE1
Itumbula-C SE wellsite and access road…
The Itumbula Prospect has always ranked highly in our portfolio. To drill a second prospect ahead of the wet season, has enabled us to save over $4 million without remobilising equipment and personnel.
"…The results that we have achieved from the Itumbula West-1 well, flowing
#helium
to surface in such significant concentrations, has confirmed a globally unique helium producing province…”
#HE1
CEO Lorna Blaisse
Upgrading to the Tai access road is underway...
By reusing parts of Seismic Line 16, which has already been cut and cleared, we save considerable time and materials.
Our
#HE1
CEO Lorna Blaisse speaks to
@proactive_UK
🎙️
Lorna discusses the promising signs observed so far, particularly in terms of helium shows. The
#helium
readings in the drilling mud have exceeded atmospheric levels…
“…We very much look forward to drilling ahead into our target reservoirs at Tai-3 over the coming days and to evaluate the well, prior to rigging down and moving the rig to our next location at Itumbula…”

#HE1
CEO David Minchin
We are pleased to provide a full project update including an update on rig selection at the
#HE1
Phase II drilling programme due to commence in Q1 2023…
Ongoing seismic interpretation supports improved drill targeting over the exploration drilling campaign at our Tai prospect.
Before clearing ground at Tai the site was surveyed and compensation agreed with farmers. Open communication and engagement ensures string local support.
We recently announced the completion of our extended infill 2D seismic campaign and identification of new priority drill ready targets ahead of commencement of exploration drilling programme at Rukwa Project in
