Royal Helium (TSXV: RHC) has apparently signed on to a major supply agreement, the details of which it is electing to not disclose. The firm this morning simply stated that it has “entered into a long-term agreement with a major North American space launch company for the supply of helium.”
Further details on just whom it is set to become a supplier for were not provided.
The firm is expected to begin deliveries under the supply program next year in 2023, with production first set to come from a facility being constructed at its Steveville, Alberta operations, which it obtained via the acquisition of Imperial Helium earlier this year. A helium facility at Climax, Saskatchewan will then follow shortly thereafter, with combined throughput expected to amount to 20,000 mcf/day.

Details on quantities to be supplied or the rate to be paid for the helium were not provided.
Royal Helium last traded at $0.38 on the TSX Venture.
