WHY IS HELIUM IMPORTANT?
- Helium is a rare commodity
- Helium becomes economically viable to extract from natural gas at concentrations as low as 0.1%
- The Virginia Gas Project’s average concentration of helium is 3.4%
- Tetra4 is placed at the forefront of exciting new discoveries for global helium supply
WHERE DO WE FIND HELIUM ON EARTH?
Lighter than air and most of it in the Earth’s atmosphere bleeds off into space.
Helium is a by-product of radio active decay, and is associated with natural gas.
