## Minestarters Atlas summary

Buffalo Potash has confirmed high-grade potash mineralization at the Disley Project by re-assaying two historical drillholes, Imperial 11-11 and Lumsden \#3. The results include several intervals exceeding the company's optimal criteria for its patented solution mining technology and will support an upcoming maiden Mineral Resource Estimate and PEA.

Reasoning: Re-assaying historical holes confirmed high-grade potash \(sylvite\) intervals that meet the company's specific technical criteria for their proprietary mining technology, supporting a future maiden resource estimate.

- Positive factor: High-grade sylvite intercepts confirmed

- Positive factor: Multiple intervals exceed management's optimal mining criteria

- Positive factor: Near major producing potash solution mines

- Positive factor: QA/QC protocols and certified laboratory \(SRC\) disclosed

- Negative factor: Results are re-assays of historical 1960s-era drillholes

- Negative factor: No mineral resource has been defined to date

Facts used in scoring: 6

## Classification and evidence

**QA/QC Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).

Why it applies: Release details QA/QC protocols including duplicates, blanks, and blind standards, and names a certified laboratory \(SRC\).

Evidence · text

> Buffalo's QA/QC protocol includes the insertion of duplicates, blanks and blind standards

**Nearology Play**

Polarity: neutral

Definition: Value premise rests on proximity to a known deposit rather than own results.

Why it applies: The project is positioned immediately adjacent to the K+S Bethune and Mosaic Belle Plaine potash solution mines.

Evidence · text

> The property is situated immediately adjacent to the east of the K+S Bethune potash solution mine

## How Atlas produces this analysis

Minestarters Atlas uses automated extraction to summarize mining announcements, identify reported measurements, and classify supporting evidence. Sentiment reflects the extracted narrative and classification rules; it is an interpretation, not a reported measurement. Evidence quotes and context are provided where available. Missing data, low-confidence results, and review flags indicate limitations. Check the original publisher announcement before relying on an interpretation.
