Buffalo Potash Completes First Confirmation Hole at Disley Project and Confirms Potash in All Target Members; Assays to Follow

BUFF · Price
Executive Summary
- Buffalo Potish successfully completed the 7‑10‑20‑23 W2M confirmation drillhole (the “7‑10 Hole”) to a total depth of 1,563 m, retrieving 108 m of core with >98% recovery.
- Visual observation and borehole geophysical logs confirmed potash mineralization in all target members (Patience Lake, Belle Plaine, Esterhazy) and noted significant sylvinite intersections; assay results are pending.
- The drillhole de‑risks Buffalo’s broader multi‑well development plan for the Disley Project and provides a keystone data set for an integrated geological‑geophysical deposit model.
Key Details
- Drillhole Depth & Core Recovery – Total depth 1,563 m; continuous core interval of 108 m obtained in a single coring run with >98% core recovery.
- Targeted Formations – Basal Dawson Bay, Patience Lake, Belle Plaine, Esterhazy Members of the Prairie Evaporite Formation and underlying Prairie salt were continuously cored.
- Geophysical Logging – Full suite of borehole logs (including dipole sonic) run on the open portion of the hole to 1,563 m; logs indicate mineralization across all target members.
- Mineralization Confirmation – Visual observation and log interpretation confirm potash presence in Patience Lake, Belle Plaine, and Esterhazy beds; significant sylvinite intersections noted in Upper Patience Lake, Belle Plaine, and Esterhazy (grades & thicknesses to be reported after assay).
- Core Handling – Cores stored with the Saskatchewan Research Council Geoanalytical Laboratory; core logging, sampling, and assaying are forthcoming.
- Strategic Impact – CEO Steve Halabura states the hole “de‑risked our broader multi‑well development plans” and will feed an integrated geological & geophysical model for the Disley Showcase.
- Future Work – Assay program pending; additional 3D seismic acquisition to commence shortly, accelerating technical advancement of the project.
- Project Context – Disley Project spans ~9,413 ha, located ~50 km NW of Regina adjacent to major solution‑mining operations (K+S Bethune and Mosaic Belle Plaine).
Notable Quotes
“The first confirmation hole delivered both operational execution and geological validation, which has de‑risked our broader multi‑well development plans.” – Steve Halabura, President & CEO
“Each dataset strengthens our understanding of the deposit and positions Disley as a compelling modular solution mining opportunity in the heart of the world’s most established potash district.” – Steve Halabura
