D3 Energy Managing Director David Casey joined Steve Darling from Proactive’s OTC studio in New York City to announce the company has been granted three new Technical Cooperation Permits (TCPs) adjacent to its flagship exploration permit, ER315. The newly acquired permits—TCP258, TCP259, and TCP260—cover a combined area of 5,797 hectares, expanding D3 Energy’s contiguous exploration footprint in South Africa’s Free State Province, a globally significant helium exploration region. Casey highlighted that the permits provide additional low-cost exploration and appraisal opportunities. The TCPs, valid for one year, involve minimal-cost desktop studies, after which D3 Energy may apply for full Exploration Rights. These permits are expected to contribute to the company’s growing helium and methane Contingent and Prospective Resource estimates in ER315. Meanwhile, appraisal work at ER315 continues to deliver promising results. The production testing program has recorded an average gas flow rate of 102 Mscfd over the first seven days of a 14-day test period, with gas samples analyzed by a SANAS-accredited laboratory. Preliminary results confirmed helium concentrations of 5.6% and methane levels at 83.2%, reinforcing the asset’s potential as a major helium and natural gas resource. These results follow the recent testing at RBD01, which demonstrated world-class helium concentrations of 6.2% and provided critical insights into the reservoir’s deliverability. The success at Nooitgedacht Major further underscores the broader prospectivity of the asset, positioning D3 Energy as a key player in the emerging helium market. #proactiveinvestors #d3energy #otcqb #dnrgf #asx #d3e #HeliumExploration #SouthAfrica #NaturalGas #EnergySector #DavidCasey #ProactiveInvestors #USMarket #ASX #OTCMarkets
