What is the core objective of the partnership between Mitsubishi Gas Chemical and Gold Hydrogen?

The core objective is to jointly assess the feasibility of producing green methanol using naturally occurring hydrogen from Gold Hydrogen's Ramsay project in South Australia's Yorke Peninsula, with Mitsubishi Gas Chemical serving as the technology owner and methanol seller, and aiming to achieve zero-emission green methanol supply through natural hydrogen.

What are the key technical and developmental milestones outlined in the partnership agreement?

Key milestones include Gold Hydrogen's commencement of production testing at its Ramsay project in late June, followed by a preliminary feasibility study to be launched in the second half of 2026; if the pre-feasibility stage succeeds and Gold Hydrogen confirms natural hydrogen supply, the partners will advance to final feasibility studies and front-end engineering design.
