Ras Laffan in Qatar is the single largest helium production hub in the world, responsible for roughly 30% of global supply. Because helium is produced as a byproduct of liquefied natural gas processing, the entire supply chain is tightly coupled to LNG infrastructure. In March 2026, drone and missile strikes forced a halt in Ras Laffan's operations, instantly removing nearly a third of global helium supply and exposing just how concentrated and fragile the market has become.But there could be a ray of hope among all of this - precisely by exposing the fragility of the global helium supply chain, resource companies are already moving to avoid this from happening again. Gold Hydrogen, with world-class helium shows at its South Australian Ramsay project, could have answers to our helium questions... and could solve future crises forever.In today’s episode, hosts Anthony Muhye and Morten Stahl sit down with Gold Hydrogen Managing Director Neil McDonald to discuss how new sources of helium, including natural hydrogen systems, could play a role in diversifying supply and addressing long-term structural constraints in the global market. ----------------------------------------------- Follow us on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/nath2investingAnd on X: https://x.com/NatH2InvestingFind more natural hydrogen insights at https://www.nath2investing.com

There are plenty of natural hydrogen companies concentrated in the same areas around the world, competing with each other in crowded spaces… but one company has ventured further out and struck gold, partnering with Koloma themselves.We’re talking of Devil Resources, which is not only exploring for natural hydrogen and helium but has also identified a potential geothermal play that could change everything for the island and Australia as a whole.In this episode, we sat down with Devil Resource’s co-founders, Hamish Gordon and Mick Small, as well as their director, Dave Bennett, to understand the company’s roadmap, potential, and how they ended up working in a JV with the biggest natural hydrogen company in the world.----------------------------------------------- In today's episode, we discuss: 00:00 Intro01:59 Exploring Devil Resources: A Unique Opportunity03:04 Meet the Founders: Backgrounds and Expertise08:10 The Founding of Devil Resources and Why Tasmania? 11:30 Why “Devil Resources” and What’s the Story?14:46 More Details on Tasmanian Geology and Commercialization Potential18:23 Synergies Between Hydrogen, Helium, and Geothermal24:22 The Connection with Morten Stahl and Natural Hydrogen Ventures28:37 Investment Insights in Devil Resources32:19 Geological Exploration and Mapping33:32 Joint Venture with 2H Resources (Koloma) and Strategic Partnerships38:02 Future Plans and IPO Strategies47:43 Industry Outlook and Company Growth54:07 Closing Thoughts and Future Vision----------------------------------------------- Follow us on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/nath2investingFind more natural hydrogen insights at https://www.nath2investing.com

Before even the pioneering names and companies that we've seen in natural hydrogen became involved with this resource, there was only a small and limited group of people in the entire globe who knew of its existence. Viacheslav Zgonnik was one of these few individuals.With his involvement dating back to 2009, Viacheslav has been studying natural hydrogen for almost two decades now, having helped this industry evolve and creating tools that will make natural hydrogen exploration easier, more accessible, and significantly more successful.In this episode, hosts Morten Stahl and Anthony Muhye get the opportunity to interview him on how this industry commenced, how he views the science AND the investment side of this field, and how he's accelerating the natural hydrogen industry into a new age of exploration through technology.Enjoy the episode, and don't forget to subscribe!Find more natural hydrogen insights and download the 2025 Natural Hydrogen Investor Report at https://www.nath2investing.comAdditional resources:Connect with Viacheslav on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zgonnik/Find out more about HyReveal here: https://hyreveal.com/

Stimulated hydrogen may be the next stage for the development of the natural hydrogen industry, and it makes sense why - it allows us to get more out of promising sites that are still not producing commercial quantities of hydrogen, and can help us control more of the process that leads to flowing, economic hydrogen.But what IS stimulated geologic hydrogen? In this episode of the Natural Hydrogen Investment Podcast, hosts Anthony Muhye and Morten Stahl discuss this emerging field of natural hydrogen with Dr. Alexis Templeton, one of the world's leading experts in geochemistry and geobiology, to understand the potential behind this technology, the significance of the Rock Hydrogen Project in Oman, and the role of microbial activity in hydrogen production.Find more natural hydrogen insights and download the 2025 Natural Hydrogen Investor Report at https://www.nath2investing.comAdditional resources:Find Dr. Alexis Templeton's Paper on the Oman Rock-Hydrogen Project here: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/geochemistry/articles/10.3389/fgeoc.2024.1366268/fullRead more about the Semail (Samail) Ophiolite here: https://iugs-geoheritage.org/geoheritage_sites/late-cretaceous-samail-ophiolite/

Natural hydrogen is attracting more investment - this is not an opinion; it's a fact. Furthermore, more companies are fundraising this year than previously, which shows that natural hydrogen companies are becoming confident in attracting money from private and public sources.But who is raising the most, where are they raising these funds from, and what does this mean for the industry as it enters a new stage? And how do regulations affect valuation? We will answer these questions in the latest episode of the Natural Hydrogen Investment Podcast.We'll also touch upon the largest companies such as Koloma, Gold Hydrogen, HyTerra, and others; how helium can be crucial in getting funding (due to the lack of commercial hydrogen wells); what strategies the larger companies are using to raise; and how our official NatH2 Index ties into this to keep track of who's growing the fastest.

Hydrogen is not a new player in the energy transition, but natural hydrogen definitely is – previously, we’ve only had green and blue hydrogen as viable, low-carbon sources of hydrogen, but both have their own set of problems. Green hydrogen, especially, is extremely costly due to the costs of electricity, and has seen reduced investment in recent times.In this episode, Anthony Muhye and Morten Stahl study the differences between green hydrogen and natural hydrogen, exploring their production methods, costs, and potential applications, and how they may compete with each other for a main role in the energy transition.We also discuss the challenges of hydrogen transport, the current state of natural hydrogen exploration, and the role of government support in the industry. Find more natural hydrogen insights at https://www.nath2investing.com
