CARROLL, Iowa - 3rd November, 2026
‍
Snowfox Discovery, a pioneer in natural hydrogen exploration, today announces it has successfully accessed an additional 4,000 acres of exploration leases in Carroll County, Iowa. We expect our exploration work programme to result in a drilling campaign in late 2028/2029.
‍
This is Snowfox’s second US land position in Iowa and represents another step towards a global portfolio of natural hydrogen opportunities.
‍
Carroll County is also located in what we consider to be the most prospective region of the Mid-Continental Rift system and is complementary to Snowfox’s first position in Audubon County announced earlier in 2026. Our selection of this specific area is a result of Snowfox’s exploration approach, which combines geophysics, geochemistry and proprietary geological modelling.

"We are extremely grateful to the leaseholders and people of Carroll, as Snowfox looks to deepen its commitment to Iowa as we expand our initial land access work.  Very much looking forward to working in partnership as we explore for natural hydrogen."

- Daniel McMahon, CEO of Snowfox Discovery Ltd

About Snowfox Discovery:
‍
Snowfox Discovery is a natural hydrogen exploration company based on sector-defining technology. Our purpose is to enable natural hydrogen to accelerate and secure the energy transition. Unlike green or blue hydrogen, which require significant energy or carbon-capture infrastructure to produce, natural hydrogen is generated by ongoing geological processes within the Earth’s crust, offering the potential for a primary energy source with a near-zero carbon footprint and substantially lower production costs. 
‍
Snowfox comprises leading geoscientists, explorers, and deep-tech innovators and is backed by world-leading investors who aim to unlock the potential of natural hydrogen for a net zero future.
