Did Henry Hudson find any riches resources or new passageways?
No. He was mostly sent out to discover a northerly sea route to the Far East. He failed, for the simple reason that there wasn't one. He got stuck in icefields twice, once trying to sail north of Scandinavia and Siberia, and once trying to sail north of Canada. In his search for a more southern passage in northern America he explored and mapped much of the coast of today's Canadian and US eastern coast, but did not establish any colonies or trade agreements there.
Finally, he sailed into what is now known as the Hudson Bay. Local tribes had told him there would be another ocean at the other side but they mistook the Great Lakes for the ocean. Winter conditions however forced him to a miserable wintering there. When he wanted to press on in the spring, his crew mutinied and set him adrift in a sloop. Nothing was heard of him again.
