Andrew Davidson
, President, and CEO comments, “We are extremely pleased with the agility the
Saskatchewan
government has shown in quickly implementing their new Helium Action Plan and how quickly they have been able to process and approve our first submission. An obvious benefit to Royal now and going forward, this program provides
Saskatchewan
operators with a significant cost advantage over most jurisdictions in North America. All proceeds received or royalties saved by Royal as a result of this program will be re-invested into the continued expansion of our helium production plans in
Saskatchewan
“.
Royal Helium Ltd.
Royal controls over 1,000,000 acres of prospective helium land in southern
Saskatchewan
and southeastern
Alberta
. All of Royals’ lands are in close vicinity to highways, roads, cities and importantly, close to existing oil and gas infrastructure, with a significant portion of its land in close proximity to existing helium producing locations. With stable, rising prices and limited, non-renewable sources for helium worldwide, Royal intends to become a leading North American producer of this high value commodity.
