DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORP. PROVIDES OPERATIONAL UPDATE: NEW MEXICO AND ARIZONA
Vancouver, Canada (January 29, 2025) — DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORP. (the “Company”) (TSX.V: DME, U.S. OTC: DMEHF, Frankfurt: QM01) From the President of the Company. Desert Mountain Energy Corp. (DME) is pleased to share an update on its operations in New Mexico and Arizona, as well as a review of the audited financials for 2024.
New Mexico Operations
The helium processing facilities at the West Pecos Abo Gas Field in New Mexico were brought online over a span of several months. As stated in a press release dated October 30, 2024, we faced various software issues that were present from the initial assembly, as well as instances of incorrect, substandard, and missing components. All of the issues have since been rectified, and the plant is now successfully separating helium from the natural gas stream. It is anticipated that the first truckload of helium will depart from the project site shortly. Based on current gas production volumes, the Company looks toward filling a truckload every 18-21 days depending upon customer specifications. This will change as gas volumes and helium percentages increase.
DME is currently selling natural gas on a monthly basis, without any sales being made into the Waha hub. The Company is actively engaged in negotiations to secure a more favorable long-term natural gas agreement.
Recently, the DME gas field in the Rozwell area has been identified as having significant potential for hosting data centers. The Company has been conducting a pilot project on its West Pecos Gas Field to assess the feasibility of operating small modular cryptocurrency mining equipment and small data centers. Additionally, a local gas producer has partnered with a major data operator to construct a 250 MW net-zero energy data center. DME is actively investigating the streamlining of the collection system to facilitate the increase in the percentage of helium and the transportation of processed gas to a mainline for use by a data center.
Continuing to own its workover rig allows DME to efficiently and economically carry out targeted maintenance on its wells, avoiding additional expenses such as mobilization, rig up, rig down, and standby costs. This enables DME to selectively assess and test different perforations, identifying and isolating those perforations with the most productive gas-bearing zones.
Additionally, DME has conducted maintenance on various sections of older pipelines as a proactive measure to prevent leaks and spills. As of now, there are no wells in the field that require artificial lift for extracting saltwater to boost gas production, resulting in substantial cost savings for the company.
The Company has developed and finalized plans for near, interim, and long-term strategies to achieve the goal of maximizing natural gas and helium production from the existing wells in the field within the next 24-36 months. Over 60% of our leases in New Mexico are situated on Federal BLM properties, and the transition in the administration in Washington, DC is expected to bring further favorable impacts to our operations in both New Mexico and Arizona.
Arizona Operations
The Company is in ongoing talks with regulatory agencies and lawmakers to establish definitive guidelines that will foster helium production in Arizona. DME appreciates the input received from the Federal Arizona delegation, state legislators, the Arizona Chamber of Commerce, and particularly the Tech Council members.
DME continues to collaborate with Beam Earth Ltd. and Hethos Ltd. to advance its hydrogen opportunities alongside its helium projects in Arizona and New Mexico. The company is engaging in conversations with Beam Ltd. and Hethos Ltd. regarding the possibility of utilizing hydrogen cells to fuel a joint helium and hydrogen processing facility in Arizona. Additionally, talks involve the potential use of DME's plant design in various regions. The focus of these discussions is centered on energy efficiency, as DME's plant design is believed to operate with an 18% reduction in electricity consumption.
In relation to the current legal action with the City of Flagstaff, the Company continues its claim and multiple defences. On January 8, 2025, the trial court dismissed three more claims against the Company, reducing the total to six out of the original 11 claims.
2024 Audited Financials
The Company changed auditors last year, and the new team finalized the fully audited financials, submitting them before the deadline. DME achieved a 66% decrease in net loss, from 0.14 to 0.05 cents per share. Management is optimistic about achieving profitability in 2025.

Desert Mountain Energy pushes to reclaim helium on US critical minerals list, focuses on Arizona
"Helium exploration and production company Desert Mountain Energy has said it is working to get helium back on the United States Geological Survey’s (USGS) critical mineral list.
The company confirmed its efforts in a recent announcement, which also confirmed its efforts with stakeholders in Arizona to streamline helium extraction processes in the state.
Helium was removed from the USGS’s critical minerals list in November 2021. The USGS, an agency under the Department of the Interior (DOI), is required by the Energy Act of 2020 to refresh the list of critical minerals at least every three years.
Read more: Helium removed from US critical minerals list
Helium’s exclusion from the 2021 list was surprising, as it was included in 2018.
Robert Rohlfing, CEO of Desert Mountain Energy, said there is still work to be done, but the company is encouraged by the progress it has made and the meaningful conversations it has had.
He added, “The importance of helium to Arizona’s key industries is becoming increasingly recognised, and we are optimistic about the road ahead.”"

DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY ISSUES A CORPORATE UPDATE
PR NEWSWIRE
9:00 AM ET 04/05/2023
VANCOUVER, BC, April 5, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORP. (the "Company") (TSXV: DME) (U.S. OTC: DMEHF) (FSE: QM01) From the President of the Company. The Company is in the final stage of development that will lead to commercial production. The recently completed financing will allow the company to build all the infrastructure necessary and complete the start-up work necessary to bring six helium wells into production. The McCauley Helium Processing Facility (MHPF) is operational. Nitrogen and atmospheric air was injected into the facility at 250-500 psi and it successfully isolated all of the component elements. Nitrogen was vented off and other elements were separated during the process with trace amounts of helium identified at the end of the processing test.
Helium Wells 4, 5, 6 and 7 were shut-in with KCL fluid to prevent any unwanted release, migration or loss of any gas prior to putting them into production and to address the general security of the wells. After the MHPF was delivered in December 2022, the wells were physically connected (via underground piping and metering manifold) to the MHPF.
The Company is currently securing a swabbing rig in order to remove the fluid via tubing swab. Once that is accomplished, gas can start flowing into the MHPF. Each well will need approximately 3 to 7 days of work. DME expects the 60-to-90-day optimization program that will lead to commercial production will be completed by the end of April 2023.
"This small final step, leading into the plant operating and processing raw gas is a relatively low-risk operation," said Robert Rohlfing, CEO of DME. "We expect to be a vertically integrated primary producer of helium, selling commercial gas this quarter."
By the end of June or early July 2023, individual well performance should be completed and stabilized at the "optimum" long-term production rate. The Company will then know the production capability of the MCauley Helium Field (flow rates, pressures and final gas composition).
VALORIE FARLEY ACCEPTS THE CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER ROLE AT DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORP. (DMEHF)
The Company is pleased to announce that Valorie Farley has accepted the role as the next CFO of Desert Mountain Energy Corp. (DMEHF) Valorie is a CPA with experience in power generation and distribution, natural resources, regulatory and financial reporting, audits and real estate development.

VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - DESERT MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORP. (DMEHF) (the "Company") (TSXV: DME) (U.S. OTC: DMEHF) From the President of the Company. The Company is pleased to announce that it has successfully completed its wildcat well on the Gunnar Dome prospect. As previously announced, the Company made the decision to test multiple zones in the well to have a better understanding of the localized geology with regard to future drill locations. A total of seven zones were perforated, tested, then squeezed off and bridge plugs were set to ensure complete closure. Many of the zones had gaseous mixtures which the McCauley processing plant is not currently set up to extract. The two sections which were perforated for production are within the same geologic formation and are separated by an impermeable layer with similar pressure. Both zones were perforated in a manner to stay within an area of only connate formation water values. Water-free or near-water-free Helium production is a continuing Company goal.
The upper zone contained 96.5422% Nitrogen, 0.0063% CO2, and 2.8232% Helium with the balance being constituted by fractional percentages of Methane, Ethane, Propane and Hexanes++. The lower perforated zone contained 98.5523% Nitrogen, 0.0075% CO2, and 0.7183% Helium with the balance containing the same types of the aforementioned fractional molecules. Most of the seven zones tested contained a similar range of high Nitrogen and varied Helium percentages, providing additional support to the Company's ability to find Helium in a primary Nitrogen environment, staying away from areas with elevated levels of CO2. The Company plans on initial Gunnar Dome production being metered and then transported approximately 24 miles to the McCauley Helium Processing Facility. Throughput numbers will not be announced until production has been established.
"Gas composition is extremely important when coupled with water-free or near-water-free production and it can be just as important as the Helium grade in the raw gas," said Robert Rohlfing, CEO of Desert Mountain Energy Corp. (DMEHF) "We are pleased that this well's specific gas composition, when combined with the wells in the McCauley field, provides for a relatively quick path to production. This well contains high levels of Nitrogen combined with Helium, minimally fractional CO2 and other noble gases. This makes the first plant much easier to operate."
