Mr. Steve Halabura P.Geo., Buffalo Chief Executive Officer, commented: "We are thrilled to welcome
Jeff to the Buffalo Board of Directors. In addition to Jeff’s extensive capital markets expertise, his time as a
board member of Standard Lithium during the scaling from technical validation through to a large-scale
near development asset is directly applicable to what we are now building at the Disley Project. His addition
meaningfully strengthens our Board at a critical inflection point as we advance toward our maiden Technical
Report and Preliminary Economic Assessment."
Mr. Jeff Barber commented: "The security of critical mineral supply chains has become a defining challenge
of our time; as the global priority shifts toward securing independent inputs for food production, potash is
increasingly recognized as central to that conversation. Buffalo re presents the kind of opportunity that
resonates deeply with my background – a project at a compelling stage of development with the assets, team,
and strategy to be a meaningful part of the solution. Furthermore, I see a clear pathway to several near-term
milestones that have the potential to unlock significant value, and I look forward to joining the Board and
contributing to the Company’s continued advancement."
