Mansoor Jan, a seasoned mining industry executive with nearly two decades of experience, has been appointed as the new CEO. His expertise with companies like BHP and Rio Tinto positions MAX Power to capitalize on the rapidly expanding Natural Hydrogen opportunities in Saskatchewan, Canada. The outgoing CEO and founder, Rav Mlait, will transition to a new role in Corporate Development, focusing on Natural Hydrogen ventures across North America and ongoing lithium exploration efforts.
Mansoor Jan’s Vision for MAX Power
Mansoor Jan brings a wealth of experience from his tenure at BHP and Rio Tinto, where he played pivotal roles in operations management, strategic development, and business planning.

Jan expressed enthusiasm about his appointment, acknowledging Rav Mlait’s foresight in positioning MAX Power within the Natural Hydrogen space.
Strategic Significance of Saskatchewan’s Natural Hydrogen Potential
The move into Saskatchewan is part of a broader strategic realignment for MAX Power. Saskatchewan’s geological profile shows strong promise for Natural Hydrogen, a clean energy source that has generated interest globally due to its potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

As Rav Mlait shifts his focus to Corporate Development, he will continue driving MAX Power’s Natural Hydrogen initiatives across Canada and the U.S. Mlait's ongoing involvement underscores the company’s commitment to both Natural Hydrogen and its lithium assets. Notably, MAX Power’s recent lithium discovery at the Willcox Playa Lithium Project in Arizona solidifies its position in the critical minerals sector, aligning with North America’s push for clean energy resources.
MAX Power’s Pioneering Role in the Natural Hydrogen Industry
MAX Power’s involvement in the Natural Hydrogen sector, supported by alliances with Chapman Hydrogen & Petroleum Engineering Ltd. and Larin Engineering HHC, positions it as a pioneering force in North America’s transition to decarbonization. As a first mover, MAX Power’s strategic realignment could provide a competitive edge as demand for cleaner energy solutions rises.
Conclusion
