(AIM: PLSR, TSXV: PLSR, OTCQB: PSRHF),** a primary helium company, is pleased to note that on October 23, 2026, the United States Department of Energy (“DOE”) issued a notice advising that it has added helium to the DOE Critical Material List.\n\nThe DOE’s notice states that helium is non-substitutable for multiple critical energy functions, including semiconductor manufacturing, leak testing natural gas infrastructure, and quantum computing, along with being essential to key medical/scientific applications. The DOE also highlights the growing demand for helium being driven by the advancement of super intelligence and data center supply chains. The DOE’s notice can be viewed via the following link: [https://www.energy.gov/documents/fed-register-notice-heliumpdf](https://www.energy.gov/documents/fed-register-notice-heliumpdf).   \n\nCliff Cain, President of Pulsar, commented: “The Department of Energy’s decision to designate helium as a critical material is an important recognition of its essential role in America’s economic future, technological leadership and national security. With global supply chains facing increasing uncertainty, the need to develop reliable domestic sources of helium has never been more urgent.\n\n“At Pulsar, we are working tirelessly to advance our high-grade helium discovery in Minnesota and stand ready to be part of the solution. We believe that we have an excellent opportunity to help ensure the United States is prepared to meet growing demand for this irreplaceable resource, strengthen our national security and support the next generation of American innovation.”\n\n**On behalf of Pulsar Helium Inc.**\n\n“Thomas Abraham-James”\n\nCEO and Director\n\nFurther Information:\n\nPulsar Helium Inc.\n\n[connect@pulsarhelium.com](mailto:connect@pulsarhelium.com)  \n\n+ 1 (218) 203-5301 (USA/Canada)\n\n+44 (0)2033 55 9889 (United Kingdom)\n\n[https://pulsarhelium.com](https://pulsarhelium.com/)  \n\n[https://ca.linkedin.com/company/pulsar-helium-inc](https://ca.linkedin.com/company/pulsar-helium-inc).  "}
