REV Exploration Expands into U.S. with $550K Montana Helium Deal
Event summary
- REV Exploration signed a non-binding LOI on January 23, 2026 to acquire Montana helium properties for $550K (cash + shares).
- The deal would quadruple REV's landholdings to 18,998 acres, expanding into U.S. Northern Great Plains.
- Transaction contingent on definitive agreement, regulatory approvals, and TSXV acceptance.
- Properties complement REV's existing Aden Dome project along Alberta-Montana border.
The big picture
This deal marks REV's first major foray into the U.S., targeting helium and natural hydrogen in Montana's Sweet Grass Hills. The acquisition aligns with growing interest in alternative energy resources and cross-border resource plays. At $550K, it's a relatively modest bet for REV, but could signal broader industry movement toward under-explored U.S. helium prospects.
