ReSolve Energy (CSE:RESO) is a publicly-traded corporation which “is focused on the development and commercialization of advanced biofuel and renewable energy technologies, as well as the exploration of natural hydrogen resources” ¹⁾

On October 22, 2025, ReSolve Energy announced the completion of a reverse takeover of QNB Metals Inc. ²⁾ Throughout this wiki, developments and advancements originally undertaken by QNB will be attributed to ReSolve.

ReSolve has engineered a proprietary, patent-pending acid hydrolysis platform capable of converting residual biomass into complementary renewable energy products. The inputs to this process include bark, demolition wood, and paper sludge, and the outputs are second-generation ethanol, industrial-grade lignin pellet biofuel, and electricity generated via integrated biomass cogeneration.³⁾ The Corporation also owns a patent pending intellectual property portfolio related to the hydrogen detection and extraction methods.⁴⁾

Our mission is to convert an environmental challenge into a catalyst for economic growth, innovation, and decarbonization. Through renewable energy production using Québec’s abundant forestry residues, ReSolve supports regional economic diversification through the use of local supply chains and the creation of skilled jobs for a low-carbon economy.

Due to the “exceptional calorific value” of lignin biofuel pellets, they are one of the most efficient biofuels in the world. This, combined with their renewable nature, make them appealing to heavy industries which currently rely on non-renewable, polluting alternatives.⁶⁾

By processing residual forestry biomass, ReSolve will create second-generation ethanol which “offer[s] a lower carbon intensity than first-generation ethanol produced from corn”⁷⁾ without requiring agricultural land to do so.

ReSolve's cogeneration units will insert renewable electricity directly into the provincial grid, or supply it to nearby industries. This will allow ReSolve to support accelerating electrification of industry and transportation without having to build out their own extensive grid infrastructure.⁸⁾

In 2022, ReSolve proposed ⁹⁾ – but subsequently backed out of ¹⁰⁾ – the acquisition of Minagoldchoix and its Tres Oros gold property in Mexico.

In January of 2023, ReSolve announced that they had negotiatied the option to acquire a 100% interest in the Goodwin Lake copper/nickel property in New Brunswick.¹¹⁾

In October of 2023, ReSolve announced that they had acquired a salt property in Kingsville, Nova Scotia. ¹²⁾

In January of 2025, QNB acquired a claim in ReSolve Energie Inc's 119 mineral exploration claims, which cover 6,613 hectares (66 km2) in Québec, and are known to host elevated levels of hydrogen.¹³⁾ Following the completion of the reverse takeover, these claims are now effectively held by Resolve Energy Inc.
