Ignis H2 Energy has completed an MT survey at Güzelkent in Eastern Anatolia, Türkiye, confirming geological models and preparing for exploratory drilling.
Ignis H2 Energy Inc. (Ignis) has completed a Magnetotelluric (MT) survey as part of its Güzelkent Exploration Project in Eastern Anatolia, Türkiye. The company conducted an extensive investigation with 150 measurement stations, confirming its geological model and further strengthening the potential of the site.
Following the completion of the MT survey, the company announced plans to proceed with exploration drilling in the area. Exploration at Güzelkent is part of the efforts of Ignis to unlock the geothermal energy potential of the Eastern Anatolia region.
The license area is located within the Eastern Anatolian Compressive Neotectonic Region, near the intersection of the North Anatolian Fault (NAF) and the East Anatolian Fault (EAF). Previous studies in the region have identified five major Paleotectonic blocks, three of which are present around the study area.
This development follows the company’s recent success at the Kaynarp?nar Exploitation Lease, where it established artesian flow at commercially viable temperatures, marking a key milestone in its geothermal energy initiatives.
