Buffalo Potash completes 7-10 hole at Disley

BUFF · Price
Executive Summary
- Buffalo Potash Corp. completed its first confirmation drill hole (7-10) at the Disley Project, targeting the Prairie evaporite formation with a total depth of 1,563 metres.
- The company confirmed potash mineralization in all target members (Patience Lake, Belle Plaine, and Esterhazy) through visual observation and borehole geophysical logs, though specific assay grades and thicknesses are pending.
- The project is located adjacent to major producing solution potash mines (K+S Bethune and Mosaic Belle Plaine), positioning it within a favorable jurisdiction for solution mining.
Key Details
- Drill Hole Completion: Hole 7-10-20-23 W2M completed with a total depth of 1,563 metres.
- Core Recovery: 108 metres of core obtained in a single coring run with core recovery exceeding 98%.
- Geological Targets: The hole continuously cored the basal Dawson Bay, Patience Lake, Belle Plaine, and Esterhazy members of the Prairie evaporite formation, as well as the underlying Prairie salt.
- Mineralization Confirmation: Potash mineralization confirmed in the Patience Lake, Belle Plaine, and Esterhazy potash beds via visual observation and borehole geophysical logs (including dipole sonic).
- Assay Status: Significant sylvinite intersections noted in Upper Patience Lake, Belle Plaine, and Esterhazy members; specific grades and thicknesses to be reported after assaying is completed.
- Core Storage: Cores stored with Saskatchewan Research Council Geoanalytical Laboratory in Saskatoon for logging, sampling, and assaying.
- Project Location: Disley project is ~50 km northwest of Regina, covering 9,413 hectares, immediately adjacent to the K+S Bethune mine and northeast of the Mosaic Belle Plaine mine.
- Future Plans: Additional 3-D seismic to commence soon; integrated geological and geophysical deposit model being prepared internally.
Notable Quotes
