Newly Recognized Gas Potential At Outokumpu

Bluejay Mining reported on the previously unrecognized presence of high concentrations of helium and hydrogen gases at its Outokumpu project in eastern Finland. A historic study and analysis of gases in saline groundwater of a 2500m deep hole drilled by the Finnish Geological Survey in 2004-05 returned an intersection of 1500 @ 1.5% helium, including 100m @ 5.6% helium.

Following the newly realized natural gas potential in the Outokumpu belt and a recently updated corporate strategy to include the exploration for and development of industrial gases, Bluejay plans to reassess historical drill holes for its helium and hydrogen potential.
